Trying to build a Unix-flavor Python from current CVS, I find I can't create
the dl extension:

    running build
    running build_ext
    building 'dl' extension
    gcc -bundle -bundle_loader python.exe build/temp.darwin-6.1-Power Macintosh-2.3/dlmodule.o -L/Users/skip/local/lib -L/sw/lib -L/usr/local/lib -o build/lib.darwin-6.1-Power Macintosh-2.3/dl.so
    ld: Undefined symbols:
    _dlclose
    _dlerror
    _dlopen
    _dlsym

Is this to be expected?  Is there some way to get this working?  I
configured using 

    configure --with-dyld --prefix=/Users/skip/local

Thx,
