[Pythonmac-SIG] Building Python

[Harris Scott R CIV AFRL/SNJM]

Yes, I fixed it by changing the type and also by getting the source from the
CVS archive.

I spent some time last night making more progress and now I'm having trouble
finding "dynload.c."

It's in the Pythoncore project, but I can't find it. I've got the MacPython
source from the
stuffit distribution and from CVS.

I'm also wondering if I can build Python with Tcl/Tk 8.3, or should I stick
with 8.0?

Thanks for your help,
-Scott
