[Distutils] $MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET mismatch

[Chris Barker - NOAA Federal]

This is really a build question, rather than a distributuion question
-- I"d try the pythonmac list:

http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig

I recall that readline is a bit of a pain on the Mac, but don't recall
the solution (nor am I running 10.8 yet).

Good luck,
  -Chris
