Summary: Remove CoreServices / CoreFoundation dependencies in core

Initial Comment:
This patch trims down the Python core on Darwin by making it 
independent of CoreFoundation and CoreServices.  It does this by:

Changed linker flags in configure/configure.in
Removed the unused PyMac_GetAppletScriptFile
Moved the implementation of PyMac_StrError to the MacOS module
Moved the implementation of PyMac_GetFullPathname to the 
Carbon.File module

In theory this should make Python start up faster on OS X, but I 
haven't benchmarked it.

It certainly won't solve the test__locale issue, but it *might* make it 
intermittent depending on what you've imported ;)

I will see if I can get to this over the weekend.  Might take a while since 
I am not familiar with much of the MacPython stuff beyond the UNIX-
level issues.

Until then, I am wondering if this will help solve test__locale from failing 
since the C locale should no longer be locked down since compilation 
against CF was what was causing trouble in the first place.

And I need to remember to regenerate configure with autoconf 2.58 (not 
2.57 as is included with OS X!).  DarwinPorts to the rescue.  =)
