Thank you for the response.
I did see the README, here is what I am doing
configure
#Make hostpython & hostpgen
make python
make test
mv python hostpython
mv Parser/hostpgen hostpgen
# Do a distclean before cross compiling
make distclean
# Configure with cross toolchain options
# gcc, g++, ar & ranlib for MIPS
# prefix pointing to /usr/lib on the target file system (MIPS)
configure
#Build python for MIPS
make
make install
Actually I hit a problem in install (I got it worked around by doing -i (ignore
errors), but later found the issue & fixed by a patch, after which - there were
no errors in make install as well).
After the install, I am removing (rm -rf) certain files that I think are of no
use as the target has limited flash space.

I set the PYTHONPATH point to /opt/Python-2.7.8/lib/python2.7
Still hit the same error. Am I missing something else?
