py27-spyder fails to build on Mountain Lion

[David Nicholls]

Looks like it's a duplicate on the trac.macports system, ticket #35325,  but listed under py-objc which I why I didn't find it.  Lot's of people are striking the same problem.

The current Apple python on this machine is v 2.7.2 and according to its boot info, it appears to be Apple build 5493, = Enthought EPD 7.1-2 (32 bit)  I don't remember ever installing the Enthought distro on this machine.  Is that the one that is supposed to come with Mountain Lion?
