[Zope] RE: BSD 4 installation

[Steve Spicklemire]

Hi Lee,

   I'm not sure if this will help.. but I do know that I routinely build
Zope on multiple FreeBSD systems and it has never caused a problem like this.
Did you build your own python, or use a port? What flavor of BSD? I've never
had to edit Makefile.pre.in or do.py on FreeBSD 3.x, or 4.x.
