#1085: Python rules for compiling in Mac OS X

 It seems that the tools/build/v2/tools/python.jam file is broken when used
 in Mac OS X (darwin). I had many problems when trying to compile
 libtorrent's python bindings using bjam and they all were finally solved
 by changing this file.

 I would suggest applying the following patch to the code. This fixes the
 missing "python_for_extensions" rule problem, and allows for properly
 setting the include paths (without relying on env vars). For linking I
 just used "-framework Python". I don't get what all the
 $(PYTHON_FRAMEWORK) stuff is about. With the "official" python install,
 gcc automatically finds the framework.
