When compiling the latest svn version on MacOS, the build
fails with the following error in libpython2.5.a:
ld: Undefined symbols:
_init_types
libtool: internal link edit command failed

When I add Modules/_typesmodule.c to Modules/Setup.dist
everything is hunky-dory, but am not sure if this is the correct place
since python seems to compile ok on Linux without the addition

Did you build a unix or framework install?

I cannot reproduce this with the current head (svnversion says 51008). Did you
do a clean build? Maybe some junk from a previous build caused problems.

The error was completely mine, you were right about junk files still laying
around. Have been able to create a clean build, both with and without
frameworks
