[Bf-committers] Current version build notes

Hi Douglas,

Outside of the freeze there are a lot of "missing mxTextTools" warnings
throughout the build process.  I'd been told before to ignore them.

It does not load; Blender says it's not a blender file. Console says: 

>>>>>>

ImportError: No module named mxTextTools

During the freeze process I got a new warning:

>>>>>>
freezing Blender.Text .Warning: unknown modules remain: math operator
strop struct time zlib
<<<<<<

I'm thinking that this is preventing mxTextTools from working properly?
 It seems to have been frozen properly and added to libfrozen.a.  At
first I thought it was a problem with python (I use the fink python in
/sw/bin, but I initially installed mxTextTools to the apple python,
wherever that is, by accident), but reinstalling the lib didn't seem to
make a difference.
