[issue4472] Is shared lib building broken on trunk for Mac OS X?

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com> added the comment:

A --enable-framework and --enable-shared are mutable exclusive. You 
either have a regular unix build or a Python.framework.

As to the SO update: the only way to avoid my change is yet another 
variable in the makefile. The "altbininstall" target assumes that it 
will install a shared library named "libpython$(VERSION)$(SO)". I 
haven't looked for other uses of the SO variable in the Makefiles yet.

Is there any documentation on what the role of the "SO" variable means. 
If there isn't I propose to leave my patch as it is. The build 
infrastructure is complicated enough as it is.
