Let me summarize this thread:
- For darwin/MacOS X there exists an undocumented MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 
switch, which makes its way all through the build-system and the 'sysconfig' 
module.  Even though 'configure' auto-detects
    checking for OSX 10.5 SDK or later... yes
  it does not seem to take care about that.
  I thus request a (documented) --with-macosx-target[=10.5] 'configure' switch.
  GNU Autoconf is evil!  I cannot provide a patch for that.
- I've attached a patch (setup.3.patch is now the final version, which adds a 
'does_library_chainload_library()' function to setup.py.  This one encapsulates 
the complexity of using different tools on different UNIX platforms and thus 
moves that out of the widespreaded code.  Due to this i'll think it should be 
merged into Py3K.
  However: it still contains lines 'sdaoden hack', which i need to get MacOS X 
running, and which need the eyes of RO or another MacOS X guru!
- Besides all that i think this issue thread can be closed.
