Comment (by mdickens at nd.edu):

 Ummm ... I really don't follow you.  When I configure Python with
 ''-enable-framework'', assuming I have my shell environment setup
 correctly, then I get a framework install that works just fine ... pretty
 much the same as what Apple provides AFAICT.  Could you explain why one
 would want to un-framework-ify a framework on MacOS X, where frameworks
 are the norm?  Could you also explain the "hard-coded stuff" to which you
 refer?  How does one in OSX decide which architecture to build for?  Can
 we even choose between x86_32 and x86_64?  If I can understand what your
 issue are, I might be able to help out.

 All of that said, has anyone tried out the tarball I provided for ticket
 #11267?  In my testing, it provides a Python install correctly on Darwin 8
 and 9, framework or no framework (but not both).  For what I do, I require
 the GUI-capable Python - which if that means I have to have a framework,
 then I'll figure out a way to make it happen ... which, I thought, is what
 I did.
