[Python-Dev] Moving MacPython to sourceforge

It's actually 830 files. This is 320 .py files (130 in Lib, the rest in 
Tools/scripts/etc) 120 .c/.h files, 110 XML and exp files (for the build 
system), 30 resource files and then assorted things (html documentation, 
scripts to drive the distribution builder, etc).

The .xml and .exp files and about 20 of the .c files are machine generated, so 
they could technically be left out of the repository. The generation process 
of these files is a bit painful, though, so I've added them as a convenience 
(the reasoning is a bit along the lines of the Grammar stuff of the core).

The one thing that I should do is clean out the "Unsupported" directory before 
doing the merge. It contains some stuff that is long dead. But then, it isn't 
all that many files.
