Ronald, as far as I can see, the patch as it stands only addresses dbm so more 
work is needed to address all the other cases, the ones that actually matter. 
Issue7713 describes a more serious, general problem because a number of other 
builders / distributers have the same problem, and not only on OS X.  Everyone 
currently needs to maintain their own set of patches on top of every release to 
modify setup.py's search behavior.  That's where the effort should go, I think.
