With this patch, IDLE is installed if _tkinter is
found, just like the IDE.

Also, /Library/Frameworks, ~/Library/Frameworks and
/Network/Library/Frameworks are added to the path.

Includes the diffs from patch 606067.

Tony, I'm applying the patches except for the one that adds the /Library/Python and friends to sys.path.

I want to think about the right location for these a bit longer. On the one hand I think that /Library/Application Support/Python may be better (but you might argue that these aren't specifically bound to the Python *application* but to the framework, which may also be used by other things). On the second hand I may want to add a python version number in there somewhere. On the third hand I may want to add a "Lib" bit in there as well, as I also want to use that base folder as a place to keep IDE scripts, Python Install Manager packages, etc. And on the fourth hand:-) this isn't very useful until distutils learns about it. Actually, it may be more confusing to unsuspecting users...
