Summary: 2.2c1 configure bug

Initial Comment:
Hi:  Found a small bug in the configure script for 
2.2c1 that manifests
itself on case-insensitive filesystems (like HFS+) 
when
--with-suffix=<suffix> is given, and <suffix> is not 
set to ".exe". EXEEXT
is set to <suffix> (in my case "x") and 
BUILDEXEEXT is set to ".exe",
leading to the following error during the install:


/usr/bin/install -c python.exe
/sw/src/root-python-unstable-2.2c1-1/sw/bin/
python2.2x
if test -f libpython2.2.so; then \
        /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 libpython2.2.so
/sw/src/root-python-unstable-2.2c1-1/sw/lib; \
else    true; \
fi
if test -f ""; then \
        /usr/bin/install -c -m 555
/sw/src/root-python-unstable-2.2c1-1/sw/bin; \
else    true; \
fi
mkdir ./Lib/plat-darwin
cp ./Lib/plat-generic/regen ./Lib/plat-darwin/regen

Failed: installing python-unstable-2.2c1-1 failed

The only way to make it build correctly is to use --
with-suffix=.exe,
leaving --with-suffix out entirely doesn't work since 
EXEEXT is then null,
and BUILDEXEEXT is still .exe.  Seems like 
BUILDEXEEXT and EXEEXT need to
be the same.
