A --enable-framework and --enable-shared are mutable exclusive. You either have a regular unix build or a Python.framework. As to the SO update: the only way to avoid my change is yet another variable in the makefile. The "altbininstall" target assumes that it will install a shared library named "libpython$(VERSION)$(SO)". I haven't looked for other uses of the SO variable in the Makefiles yet. Is there any documentation on what the role of the "SO" variable means. If there isn't I propose to leave my patch as it is. The build infrastructure is complicated enough as it is.
