Fix for issue #3646: with this patch it is possible to do a
framework install of Python in your home directory (on OSX):
$ configure --enable-framework=${HOME}/Library/Frameworks
$ make && make install

but 'make install' would try to install the application bundles
and command-line tools outside the user's home, which doesn't work
for non-admin users (and is bad form anyway).
