[issue20644] OS X installer build broken by changes to documentation build

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily added the comment:

build-installer.py now assumes that sphinx-build and the previously required hg have been installed somewhere on the restricted PATH that the installer uses.  Behind the scenes, the installer build process has been substantially revised to make use of a bootstrapped Python 2.7 instance on OS X 10.5 and 10.6 for the use of hg and sphinx-build, since the current version of sphinx-build requires at least Python 2.6 thus the 10.5 system Python 2.5 no longer suffices.
