I take that back.  I looked in config.status.  I didn't use --enable-shared
in my svn sandbox build.  I misread the output of grep.

So, it's clearly the --enable-shared that's the culprit.  The library search
path built when I used LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib must somehow search
/opt/local/lib before searching $PWD.

Would be nice if we could fix that.  I can't see why a third party library
search directory (generally intended to point the linker at stuff like
libreadline or libjpeg) should be searched before the directory in which
Python is being built.
