[Pythonmac-SIG] configure failing with Python 2.4

[Kevin Dangoor]

I actually just installed Xcode this morning. I do have Fink installed, 
but removed it from my path when I moved my bashrc and profile aside. I 
also had confirmed that gcc is in /usr/bin.

 > gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/3.3/specs
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1495)

That's what struck me as odd here... there's nothing very out of the 
ordinary that I'm aware of.

As I thought about it some more, I may just use my existing python 2.3 
until there's an official MacPython 2.4 release.
