[Patches] Fix main Makefile to create prefix, exec_prefix

[Greg Ward]

This patch fixes the top Python Makefile so it creates $(prefix) or
$(exec_prefix) before attempting to create directories under them.
Handy when you use prefixes like "/usr/local/python-1.5.2" and
"/usr/local/python-1.6a1", which don't exist until you install Python
into them.
