>Description:
configure doesn't setup Makefiles correctly on Python to support shared libraries correctly. This is due to the change to ELF I believe (not a problem under 2.2.x).
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to load any shared library, seg fault
>Fix:
http://www.amber.org/~petrilli/python/freebsd3-fix.patch

This patch fixes configure.in so that it is correct, but not configure, which will need to be regened using autoconf.
