Summary: enable-shared .dso location

Initial Comment:
When building on AMD64/FC5 with --enable-shared,
libpython.so is placed in /usr/lib.  Unfortunately,
/usr/lib is not in the shared object search path by
default--/usr/lib64 is used.

I believe that this is a fairly standard linux
configuration for 64bit machines.

Ok, closing as "won't fix". It would be possible to
hard-code this into configure, but I'm unsure whether that
would be the right thing to do.

Point.  It is probably unrealistic for the python build to
figure this out automatically.  Thanks.

You should configure Python with --libdir=/usr/lib64, then,
right?
