Python3 library path, no symlink in /opt/local/lib?

No idea, you'd have to look at what its CmakeLists is doing. It's
clearly not using any of the recommended ways to find out how to link
against python though:

% python3.7-config --ldflags
-L/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/config-3.7m-darwin
-lpython3.7m -ldl -framework CoreFoundation

% pkg-config --libs python-3.7
-L/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib
-lpython3.7m

Hopefully there is a cmake variable that can be set to influence where
it looks.
