Aha! That missing directory is the problem. If you read the docs on
what macostools.mkalias does is it creates a Finder shortcut for a
location. Well, it fails because it can't make a shortcut to a non-existent
location.
OK, I have uploaded a patch that basically just checks for sys.prefix's
existence; if it is missing the test just returns without running. I figured
creating the directory would be the improper thing to do since ``make
install`` will handle that and use specific permissions I didn't want to
override by having the test create it.
If you can, Ian, apply the patch and let me know if it fixes the issue.

The test_shutil failure has already been reported; bug #1076467 and it
seems to have to do with running as root.
As for the test_macostools failure, lets take this one step at a time.
What is the value for sys.prefix? Does that directory exist on your
machine when you run the test?

Jurjen, can you put some more context with that ?
What does test_locale have to do with Unicode ?

Yep, I have met this too.
It has to do with the uniccodeobject.py, that does not want
HAVE_USABLE_WCHAR_T without HAVE_WCHAR_H (sorry if I got the
names slightly wrong).
This is the case on the Mac, where WCHAR_T is defined in another file,
and WCHAR_H does not exist.
Who can fix unicodeobject.h?
Thanks,
Jurjen

OK, I have no problem with the test failing. What happens if you execute
using sudo; ``sudo make test``?

The test__locale failure is known about (OS X does some funky stuff with
C's locale library).
As for the test_macostools failure, I will need to recompile with --enable-
toolbox-glue to see if I get the failure as well.
