... I added ".m" as the list of suffixes to compile as 
C source on Mac OS X.  This worked just fine and 
allowed the PyObjC module to compile via a 
normal distutils based setup.py script.

I suspect that there may need to be flags?

In general, the whole makesetup mechanism 
should be coupled with distutils because 
makesetup has a bunch more knowledge about 
the specifics of dealing with certain source file 
types!???!!

A similar patch from Steve Majewski was accepted a while 
ago; in fact I believe it made into Python 2.1.1.

That  was submitted by me [bbum@codefab.com] in 
case anywhere needs to followup.
