Hmm, this feels embarrassing but the good news is that, on seeing the errors, I remember using a "sudo" with the make install and only later finding out that I shouldn't have.

/usr/bin/install -c python.exe /usr/local/bin/python2.7
install: /usr/local/bin/python2.7: Permission denied
make: *** [altbininstall] Error 71

So how to proceed here?
