This much depends on the Python version. With 2.2aX, you should follow
the Unix instructions: configure <options>;make;make install. Older
versions have gotchas, like strange failures when you forget to
specify an executable suffix. Instead of putting those in a how-to,
people have focused on fixing the problems instead...
