[New-bugs-announce] [issue19960] MacOSX: Building 2.7 without the xcode command line tools installed

[Ronald Oussoren]

New submission from Ronald Oussoren:

When you build python 2.7 on an OSX 10.9 machine with Xcode but without the command-line tools installed that build mostly succeeds, but doesn't detect a number of dependencies (in particular zlib).

The attached patch teaches "add_dir_to_list" about the SDK sysroot on OSX and with that the build succeeds.

Aside: I also noticed problems with build tinter, with 2.7 but also with 3.3 and 3.4. I'll file a separate issue about that.
