Please could you file a report at http://bugs.python.org? The build and configure log would be useful. If you can diagnose the source of the failure yourself any further that would be more useful; I suspect that the core developers will have a hard time figuring the problem out without this. I may well be barking up the wrong tree here, but as a first guess it looks as though something in the _PySys_Init function in Python/sysmodule.c is (directly or indirectly) causing the OverflowError to be raised. I'd try adding a bunch of printf calls to that function that print the value of PyErr_Occurred(), to see where (if at all) the Python exception is being set. (I suggest building with the --with-pydebug configure option for this.)
