| Yes.  It builds right out of the box.  The only trap is if you build on 
| an HFS+ as opposed to UFS volume; then, you have to be careful about 
| case (HFS+ is case-insensitive but preserving.)

Specificially, if you use HFS+ and want it to "just work" when you run
make, then you need to rename the Python directory to something else (I
called it Python.d), then change Makefile.in, configure.in, and
Python/Makefile.in to use the new directory name.  Then run autoconf,
then configure, etc.
