Compiling Python 3.6.1 on macOS 10.12.5

[Nigel Palmer]

Hi Chris

I am planning on embedding Python into a C++ application and I wanted to have my own build of Python to do that. I know that eventually I will need to use --enable-shared or --enable-framework but for now I am trying to get a the simpler static build to compile first.

Thanks,
Nigel

Why are you trying to compile Python manually? You should use Homebrew to install Python in 99% of cases. (The package is python3)
