For this you need to modify your local copy of gramps.modules to include to 
your local copy of gtk-osx.modules instead of the one at git.gnome.org. If you 
don’t have your own checkout of the latter, you can point it at 
/Users/waider/Sources/jhbuild/modulesets/gtk-osx.modules. Then you can edit 
gtk-osx-python.modules in that directory to have the autogen-template that you 
want.
