[Pythonmac-SIG] IDLE etc build from CVS

[Tony Lownds]

Cool, works great. I have updated the IDLE bug/patch (IDLE still 
won't work as built from CVS) http://python.org/sf/688266

A small issue:

The __argvemulator_<mainfile>.py is leaving modules in the __main__ namespace.
These are visible to IDLE users if they type dir()

Instead of:

import argvemulator, os

argvemulator.ArgvCollector().mainloop()
execfile(os.path.join(os.path.split(__file__)[0], "macosx_main.py"))

How about:

__import__('argvemulator').ArgvCollector().mainloop()
execfile(
    (lambda os=__import__('os'):
        os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "macosx_main.py")
    )()
)

Its ugly but keeps __main__ clean.
