[Dev] build oddity

[Mike Taylor]

Ahukini (the OS X full build tinderbox) is raising that really odd 
Python configure error again.  I figure I would toss it out for others 
to look because it is soo odd to be happening in a clean 
external/python build *and* I cannot reproduce it on any other OS X 
computers except Ahukini.

This is the error that is flagged during the external/python configure 
step:

checking getaddrinfo bug... buggy
Fatal: You must get working getaddrinfo() function.
        or you can specify "--disable-ipv6".

Last time this happened Grant B. was kind enough to generate some test 
code to verify that getaddrinfo() is not buggy and we ended up not 
finding a specific reason for this error to be happening.

I've started the tinderbox again while I run to the hospital -- if it 
is still failing when I get back (about an hour or so) I will probably 
take the OS X full build offline until I can research this some more.
