>Description:
In lang/python30, 'make -D WITH_UCS4' does not actually make with UCS-4  support. This can be shown by running python, importing 'sys', and seeing that 'sys.maxunicode' is still 64k.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Looking in lang/python30/work/Python-3.0.1/portbld.shared/config.log, we see that the config command was:

$ ./../configure --with-threads --enable-unicode=ucs4 --enable-ipv6 --prefix=/usr/local --mandir=/usr/local/man --infodir=/usr/local/info/ --build=i386-portbld-freebsd7.0

This is *wrong*. According to ./configure --help, you need to use '--with-wide-unicode'. I have tested this by building directly from source, and --with-wide-unicode in fact works.
