Summary: building on OpenBSD 3.5

Initial Comment:

Doing ./configure, make on OpenBSD 3.5 with Python
2.4a3 doesn't work.

I looked in the OpenBSD 3.5 ports tree for Python 2.3,
and saw a patch with a couple changes to Python's
configure file.    (plus a patch with a tiny tweak to
one of the tests).  With these changes, compile / make
/ regrtest.py seems to work:

-bash-2.05b$ ../../python regrtest.py -q -unetwork
No handlers could be found for logger "cookielib"
-bash-2.05b$

I don't know.  I copied that blindly from a patch in
OpenBSD's python port.  It doesn't appear to be necessary (I
can configure & make without it), so I'm resubmitting the
patch without it.

Also, OpenBSD 3.6 is in beta, and will be released November
1.  Looking at the source, it will require this change as
well.  From the below thread, the OpenBSD people don't seem
to be on the verge of fixing this.  So I made the patch
apply to 3.6.

Why the change to LDSHARED? Didn't OpenBSD use a.out at some
point in time? Does the C preprocessor not define __ELF__
anymore?
