Of course, that's it. Now I feel silly. Thanks, Jack. I've only been
paying spotty attention to this list, but the ideal solution (IMHO)
would be that "make install" puts a fully-operational Unix python
version in /usr/local/bin, while "make frameworkinstall" actually
creates the /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework.
The frameworkinstall should certainly install python binaries in
/usr/local/bin that use the framework, so I don't have to waste extra
space in /usr/local/lib for duplicate libraries. You probably already
do this, and I should probably just shut up, install it correctly, and
see what happens. :-)
