When compiling python from svn on a Mac OS X with a 
case sensitive file system I get the following build
error:

running build
running build_ext
db.h: found (4, 3) in /opt/local/include/db4
db lib: using (4, 3) db-4.3
sqlite: found /usr/include/sqlite3.h
/usr/include/sqlite3.h: version 3.1.3
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./setup.py", line 1507, in <module>
    main()
.
.
  File "./setup.py", line 1088, in addMacExtension
    raise RuntimeError("%s not found" % name)
RuntimeError: MacOS not found
make: *** [sharedmods] Error 1




It can be fixed by either renaming the file:
  Mac/Modules/macosmodule.c 
to
  Mac/Modules/MacOSmodule.c 

or applying the following patch :

The patch is incorrect, as this would rename user visible name of the python 
extension ('import MacOS' would stop working). 

The rename would be correct.

Could you please test if renaming Mac/Modules/macosmodule.c to Mac/
Modules/MacOS.c solves your problem?  With that rename the build still works 
for me, but I don't have a case-sensitive filesystem.

I've implemented the rename I suggested earlier in revision 50832.

Could you please confirm that this does actually solve your problem?

The rename works for me. I've been able to compile with and without
the --enable-framework configure option and both versions can import
and use MacOS correctly.
