[Pythonmac-SIG] Debuggers wanted for fixup script

[Jack Jansen]

I've added a script Mac/OSX/fixapplepython23.py to the CVS repository, 
only to the trunk for now, that will inspect and fix the 
Apple-installed Python 2.3 as per what we discussed here (making 
extensions build in a way that works, even if newer Pythons are 
installed).

I'd like it if people could test the script, and test whether they see 
the warning (you need to run this script) if they do a framework 
install of 2.5a0 if their apple-python needs patching.

Also, if people could run this on OSX 10.2 and 10.4, just to see that 
it doesn't cause any problems there, would be nice.

The script does all sorts of error-checking (which hasn't been tested 
yet, of course:-), and I'm actually thinking of having the 
patch-installer (also discussed previously, this is a .pkg installer 
that will fix Apple-installed Python for people not building from 
source) also simply run this script, in stead of bluntly installing a 
modified copy of lib/config/Makefile. Opinions on this?
