Python seems to fail silently when LANG enviroment variable is set to a bad value. In Mac OS X Leopard it is set too UTF-8 for instance which does not seem to be valid. Python fails building the modules during make and the generated python.exe is unable to output anything. Setting the LANG variable to C or some other valid value fixes the problem. But I suppose python should fail more verbose in case of a bad locale,or maybe it should fallback to a standard locale.
