Configure fails on macOS

I am using Python 3.6:

$ python -V
Python 3.6.4

Here is so more information. The failing python command is

q))-1 string[$[count w;pp first w;e`python]]," -c \"",x,"\""
python3 -c "import sysconfig as c,os,sys;v=c.get_config_var;first=lambda x:len(x) and x[0];d=v('LDLIBRARY');P,p=sys.exec_prefix,sys.prefix;w=lambda x:first([a[0] for a in os.walk(x) if d in a[2]]);L=w(P+'/lib')or w(v('LIBDIR'));I=c.get_path('include');print('\n'.join([L,d,P,p,I]))"

Running it with inspect mode in python gives

$ python3 -i -c "import sysconfig as c,os,sys;v=c.get_config_var;first=lambda x:len(x) and x[0];d=v('LDLIBRARY');P,p=sys.exec_prefix,sys.prefix;w=lambda x:first([a[0] for a in os.walk(x) if d in a[2]]);L=w(P+'/lib')or w(v('LIBDIR'));I=c.get_path('include');print('\n'.join([L,d,P,p,I]))"

  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

>>> import pdb; pdb.pm()
[0] > <string>(1)<module>()
(Pdb++) L
0

So the culprit is the "walk" function:

(Pdb++) P
'/Users/a/.virtualenvs/3/bin/..'
(Pdb++) v('LIBDIR')
'/usr/local/opt/python36/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib'
(Pdb++) w(P+'/lib')
0
(Pdb++) w(v('LIBDIR'))
0

Python dynamic library can be found in the following directory on my system:

$ ls /usr/local/opt/python36/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/config-3.6m-darwin/libpython*
/usr/local/opt/python36/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/config-3.6m-darwin/libpython3.6.a
/usr/local/opt/python36/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/config-3.6m-darwin/libpython3.6.dylib
/usr/local/opt/python36/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/config-3.6m-darwin/libpython3.6m.a
/usr/local/opt/python36/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/config-3.6m-darwin/libpython3.6m.dylib

This directory is correctly reported by python-config:

$ python-config --ldflags
-L/usr/local/opt/python36/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/config-3.6m-darwin -lpython3.6m -ldl -framework CoreFoundation

Hmm. It looks like I reported this before. See #13.

Configure is no longer required as there is no compile time dependency on python, so closing out
