I too have encountered this problem while building Python 2.4 with
MacPorts.
My Mac's filesystem is case sensitive.
Mr. Beard, is your filesystem case sensitive?
There is logic in configure.in (and thus configure) that tests
whether the filesystem is case INsensitive. On most Macs this test
will evaluate to true but on my Mac it will evaluate to false.
Could this difference be the source of the build failure and the
fact that some aspects of the build expect "python.exe" to exist?

Hi,
I think this is being looked into already, but I can confirm this. I
am using two systems currently, one is case-insensitive (at work) and
the other case-sensitive (at home). On my case-insensitive system the
upgrade went smoothly, on the case-sensitive one it failed. This is
probably some upstream issue, but I hope it can be patched here.
