Summary: Should build Python dylib with -single_module

Initial Comment:
According to bbum, dylibs built with -single_module load 
significantly faster.  The default is not -single_module.  A typical 
build of Python will have ~190 modules, when it could have just 
one.  To check to see how many modules a dylib has, use otool -
Mv on the dylib.

Note that this is NOT for building extensions, only for building the 
dylib for Python itself.
