  - In unix-Python on Mac OS X (and darwin) sys.platform is now "darwin",
    without any trailing digits.
+ 
+ - Changed logic for finding python home in Mac OS X framework Pythons.
+   Now sys.executable points to the executable again, in stead of to
+   the shared library. The latter is used only for locating the python
+   home.
