Third party libraries on HP-UX don't reside in /usr/local/lib, but in
/usr/local/lib/hpux<bitness>. These also need to be added to the compiler
library dirs to make linking possible, not just for module discovery.

This requires a backport to 3.7.

Hi @michael-o .
Thanks for pushing this patch.
Are you using Python on HPUX?

We have a few small patches for Python 2.7 for HPUX here https://github.com/chevah/python-package/tree/master/src/python and trying to get CFFI working on HPUX.
We have a private buildbot slave running tests for Python 2.7 on HPUX.
If you are interested in improving Python on HPUX maybe we can join our error and try to work together.

Cheers

@adiroiban In short -- yes. We want to migrate some mechinal application from Fortran to Python. Though, we plan to use 3.7+. I do not plan to contribute to 2.7 because it is a dead-end for me.

I'd love to join forces. I have already several PRs created and pushing several other changes locally.

Closing because there is actually no /usr/local on HP-UX, System V does use /opt, not /usr/local.
