There's almost always external stuff involved :) the question is whether you
need to be able to say
'--with-framework=<external_library_to_link_with_or_directory_find_auxiliary_files_in>',
or '--enable-framework=<style_of_framework>'. Maybe the first is the case,
but from what I've seen, it's more like the second.
