While trying to build python 3.11.0 build on my system is failing at building freeze modules, with the following lines printed,

\</\> ./Programs/\_freeze\_module importlib.\_bootstrap /home/m/python/Python-3.11.0/Lib/importlib/\_bootstrap.py Python/frozen\_modules/importlib.\_bootstrap.h  
make: execvp: ./Programs/\_freeze\_module: Invalid function argument  
Makefile:1204: recipe for target ‘Python/frozen\_modules/importlib.\_bootstrap.h’ failed  
make: \*\*\* [Python/frozen\_modules/importlib.\_bootstrap.h] Error 127\</\>

can someone please guide me on how to correct this.

From the little information you provide, it seems the invocation of `execvp` is failing. You didn’t describe “my system”. What operating system/version/compiler details can you provide that might help others work out what might be going wrong?

Which commands did you type? Does it work if you try again? How did you get Python source code?
