A-hah!  The problem is that Snow Leopard is also Darwin 10.0 and it 
turns out that an important test in the configure script doesn't handle 
the two-digit major version number correctly.

The attached patch should fix the problem.  Or simply manually edit 
configure to replace the line:
  FreeBSD/4.* | Darwin/[6789].*)

with the three lines:
  Darwin/[012345].*)
      ;;
  Darwin/*)

The same problem affects all of the current Pythons which is why you saw 
it on 2.6.3 as well.  I'll see that it gets taken care of.

Thanks!
