Looks like that. You should definately run configure with the
--enable-py-debug option. If there are any problems with the python
interpreter, you'll get more verbose error messages that way.

No. I set this manually. It's something GNU ld needs to correctly link
to python - libtool wouldn't know that this flag is needed. But I
already made an exception for Solaris, so we can put in another one for
OS X to omit the flag as it seems to work without it.

Simply passing the --prefix=/sw option to configure would help here
already. Although I remember from my BeOS experiments that
adonthell-wastesedge will always end up in /usr/local/bin, no matter
where adonthell is installed. I consider that a flaw as well, but
haven't gotten around to fix it yet ;).

That might well be the case. Remember that you also need the latest data
in that case. Cirrus shouldn't have problems to get it from CVS.
