Among other issues, the Apple-supplied 0.9.7 libs for the 10.5 ABI cannot
verify newer SHA-256 certs as now used by python.org services. Document
in the installer ReadMe some of the certificate management issues that
users now need to be more concerned with due to PEP 476's enabling cert
verification by default. For now, continue to use the Apple-supplied
0.9.8 libs for the 10.6+ installer since they use Apple private APIs to
verify certificates using the system- and user-managed CA keychain stores.
Some third-party projects, such as matplotlib and PIL/Pillow,
depended on being able to build with Tcl and Tk frameworks in
/Library/Frameworks. They were unable to build with the built-in
Tcl/Tk and/or execute correctly.
Make it easier for users to make use of the backup _tkinter linked
with the third-party Tcl and Tk frameworks in /Library/Frameworks.
The two tkinter variants are now installed in separate directories
under a new lib-tkinter. This allows per-user selection by
manipulating sys.path, directly or with PYTHONPATH. If this
proves useful, we can supply a more convenient user interface
to supply the paths. For now, this remains somewhat experimental.

in broken interpreters when building with clang.

- Remove OS X installer and Mac/Makefile dependencies on /Developer which
no longer exists with Xcode 4; the referenced tools have been installed
into the usr/bin tool root since Xcode 3.
- Support adding the SDK usr/bin tool root to the installer's PATH via the
SDK_TOOLS_BIN environment variable.
different parsing of the Makefile by distutils.sysconfig and
sysconfig in the case when an intermediate config vars, used to
construct PY_CFLAGS or PY_LDFLAGS, has a trailing space character.
In this case, the OS X installer build script was leaving a
trailing space in the OPT and LDFLAGS config vars. The space is not
significant and it's not worth toying with the Makefile parsing.

properly skip uncompilable files and to compile existing

the system-provided Python. Also, properly guard a new Python 3 only
installer build step so that build-installer.py can stay compatible
with the 2.7 version. (with release manager approval for 3.2rc2)
Both the Makefile and the script that is used on OSX to create the binary
installer refer to the directory containing the Makefile using the name
'config'. This name was changed with the new ABI (with default build flags
it is now named config-3.2m). This patch ensures that both files use the
correct name.
The build-installer.py script contains one other change: it now tests for the
Tcl/Tk framework version by looking at the 'Current' symlink in the framework
instead of runnning a script. This makes it possible to verify the version
that is in the SDK that's used during the build instead of the version that
is installed on the system.
Builds are not yet fully supported on Python 3 as some parts
of the build process (like the documentation build chain)
are still dependent on Python 2.
Without this patch the i386/x86_64 installer for OSX 10.6
lies in the ReadMe file and the "Important Information" screen
of the installer (that is, the installer claims it supports
the i386 and ppc architectures insetead of the ones it really
supports)
