Summary: configure ignores --without-pth

Initial Comment:
I am trying to compile python2.3.3 against uclibc which does not 
contain pth.h and I dont need it anyway. So I added --without-pth 
to the configure commandline. 
 
Due to configures output it seemes to understand it: 
 
[..]                                                                                                      
checking for --with-pth... no                                                                             
[..] 
 
But pyconfig.h still contains HAVE_PTH 1 after the configure run. 
 
However, I added some sed lines to patch pyconfig.h before running 
make, but this were still unsuccessful, when I run make I see the 
following error:

make: *** [/usr/local/dev/src/buildroot/build_i386/Python-2.3.3/

This is a bug in configure.in or something. It makes it impossible to 
compile pythong with uclibc without pth.
