Building Python requires, I believe, the XCode development tools to be
installed. Even then, building a full version of Python - with *all* the C

What's non-trivial about it? I usually find that the normal
"./configure; make; make install" sequence works fine without
any further intervention.
If you want a framework installation you have to read the
README and use a couple of extra options, but it still works
very smoothly.
A build on my machine produces output similar to:
Python build finished, but the necessary bits to build these modules were not
found:
_bsddb dl gdbm
imageop linuxaudiodev ossaudiodev
readline spwd sunaudiodev
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the
module's name.
Failed to build these modules:
_tkinter
Obviously many of those are not meant to be built and I usually build Python
for running the test suite - so I don't care about not having Tkinter. A new
user of Python would most certainly care about not having Tkinter.
What's the OS version? Do you have a copy of Tcl/Tk in /Library/Frameworks?
10.6.3 and yes I have Tcl and Tk in /Library/Frameworks. How do I
determine which versions they are?
All the best,
