New submission from Sridhar Ratnakumar <sridharr at activestate.com>:

$ make frameworkinstall DESTDIR=[...]/py3_1rc1-macosx-apy31-rrun/image
running install_scripts
[...]
copying build/scripts-3.1/2to3 ->
//Users/apy/rrun/build/activepython-svn-trunk/build/py3_1rc1-macosx-apy31-rrun/image/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin
error:
//Users/apy/rrun/build/activepython-svn-trunk/build/py3_1rc1-macosx-apy31-rrun/image/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin/2to3:
Too many levels of symbolic links
make: *** [sharedinstall] Error 1

!

this appears to be a regression in 3.1rc1 (used to work with 3.1b2).
need to investigate further. will update this bug if I find anything
useful. (quick observation .. 'install_scripts' seem to be run twice)
