Summary: 'make install' needs write access to build directory

Initial Comment:
[submitted by David Highley <dhighley@highley-recommended.com>]

I experienced the following types of installation build problems with the
Python 2.0 release. Not all building and modification of files is completed int the build step. When doing the install as a root user and the Python code tree is NFS mounted the install proess fails. I also needed to modify the Modules/Makefile to pass ld a run time path so that when the python executable is invoked it can find the tcl/tk libraries in /usr/local/lib. This install was on a Solaris 8 system.

I suspect this bug no longer applies to the current CVS, 
as the build process no longer increments buildno every time
you invoke make.
