This issue may not provide the information you're looking for, but it
is related:

http://bugs.python.org/issue14873

It has a patch from a few days ago awaiting review.

Incidentally, the UNIX-specific information added in

http://hg.python.org/devguide/rev/80358cdac0a6

might be good to link to in the UNIX section here:

"Do take note of what modules were not built as stated at the end of
your build. More than likely you are missing a dependency for the
module(s) that were not built, and so you can install the dependencies
and re-run both configure and make (if available for your OS)."

(from http://docs.python.org/devguide/setup.html#unix )

Or else move the UNIX-specific information into a subsection of the
UNIX section.
