New submission from Ronald Oussoren <[email protected]>:

On OSX it is possible to compile using an SDK, which is basicly a directory 
tree containing include files and shared library stubs. When building using an 
SDK (such as the 10.4u SDK) the compiler looks in the SDK subtree instead of / 
(that is, look for include files in $SDKROOT/usr/include instead of 
/usr/include, and simularly for other locations).

Python's setup.py should do the same thing when performing build-time tests, 
such as looking for header files or libraries.

BTW. I'm planning to work on a patch for this, the issue is mostly here to 
remind me that something needs to be done.
