Rather unimportant, but let me note that attempt to compile python 2.6.8 fails
the same way:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gcc -c -fno-strict-aliasing -g -O2 -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O3 -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes  -I. -IInclude -I./Include  -fPIC -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o
Objects/longobject.o Objects/longobject.c
init2.c:37:  assertion failed: ((64 - 0)+0) == (((64 - 0)+0)/8) * 8 &&
sizeof(mp_limb_t) == (((64 - 0)+0)/8)
Objects/longobject.c: In function ‘PyLong_FromString’:
Objects/longobject.c:1611: internal compiler error: Abort

This is an abort() from inside GMP - what GMP version are you using?
Does it work ok?  Thus, did you run make check when installing it?

Note that GCC 4.4.1 is rather old and no longer supported, please update
to at least GCC 4.6.3.  (even GCC 4.4 has bugfix releases, GCC 4.4.7 was
the last 4.4 release).

I am not the person who installed gcc here and I am not administering  the
machine, so unfortunately I can't elaborate on the way current gcc was
installed. 
I am going to try compiling some version myself and retry.

>From your comment I understand that gcc internally uses GMP and that likely it
was compiled against wrong GMP. Will try to take a look, I remember that there
were some 32-vs-64-bit problems with respect to GMP on Suns
