New submission from Robin Dunn <robin at alldunn.com>:

OSX Leopard (10.5.4)
Python-3.0b2 tarball 

./configure --enable-universalsdk --enable-framework 
make
sudo make install 

Ends with this error:
cd PythonLauncher && make install DESTDIR=
test -d "/Applications/Python 3.0" || mkdir -p "/Applications/Python 3.0"
test -d "/Applications/Python 3.0/Python Launcher.app" && rm -r
"/Applications/Python 3.0/Python Launcher.app"
cp -r "Python Launcher.app" "/Applications/Python 3.0"
touch "/Applications/Python 3.0/Python Launcher.app"
test -d "/Applications/Python 3.0" || mkdir -p "/Applications/Python 3.0"
test -d "/Applications/Python 3.0/IDLE.app" && rm -r
"/Applications/Python 3.0/IDLE.app"
make[1]: [install_IDLE] Error 1 (ignored)
cp -PR IDLE/IDLE.app "/Applications/Python 3.0"
cp: Warning: the meaning of `-P' will change in the future to conform to

make: *** [frameworkinstallapps] Error 2


It looks like this is due to fink's cp being found first on the PATH. 
Temporarily disabling /sw/bin/cp so /bin/cp would be found first then
the install finished.
