[Chicago] Python on OSX Install

[Tom Yarrish]

Well from what I've seen so far, compiling it from source seems to
make any other modules you may want to use in the future easier to
install.  And that there are things broken with the Apple
implementation.

I'm trying to do it via brew now, I just need to clean up a previous
fink install.
