Summary: make install fails on macosx for Python-2.1a2

Details: Python-2.1a2 on macosx 
make install fails trying to ranlib the shared library:

ranlib: file: /usr/local/lib/python2.1/config/libpython2.1.dylib is not an
archive

(This bug wasn't in 2.0, and I don't think was in 2.1a1.)

Comment:
Commenting out the $(RANLIB) line in the
install section of Makefile seems to fix the problem on macosx, but I don't
know if it is a problemon any other platforms. 

       @if test -d $(LDLIBRARY); then :; else \
                $(INSTALL_DATA) $(LDLIBRARY) $(LIBPL)/$(LDLIBRARY) ; \
#               $(RANLIB) $(LIBPL)/$(LDLIBRARY) ; \
