[New-bugs-announce] [issue4692] Framework build fails if OS X on case-sensitive file system

New submission from Ned Deily <nad at acm.org>:

In the main python Makefile.pre.in, the frameworkinstallextras target, 
only used on OS X, has a bogus "Make" command instead of "$(MAKE)" as in 
other targets.  Traditionally and by default, the OS X root file system is 
case-insensitive, in which case "Make" coincidentally does invoke 
/usr/bin/make.  However, with OS X installed on a case-sensitive fs, the 
command fails.  One-liner patch attached.
