python-2.6: fixed build on Darwin

 * Dropped "nolongdouble.patch". The patch no longer applies to Python 2.6, and
   apparently isn't required anymore either.

 * Added access to native Darwin arch utility. Python tries to run 'arch' in
   the configure stage, but that binary reside in /usr/bin. To make it
   available to the expression, the small wrapper darwinArchUtility is added as
   a buildInput if appropriate.

 * Don't pass --enable-shared. The build fails if we try to enable building of
   shared libraries, apparently because some required libraries aren't linked,
   i.e. the linker call isn't right.

TODO:

 * Figure out how to enable shared linking.

 * The resulting binary on Darwin seem to lack the binascii module.
