Python's configure misunderstand freebsd

[Baptiste Daroussin]

Hi,

At FOSDEM I have been reported by Sevan (CCed) that the python's configure
scripts thinks it is forbidden to have a lib named libpython2.so.X.Y on FreeBSD
which is wrong.

Here is a patch that fixes it on python2 unfortunatly as a result that means
everything linked to libpython2.so.1 will need a bump. (same thing should be
done for other pythons)

I would prefer that you guys decides when how and so on to make that change
happening.

https://people.freebsd.org/~bapt/respect-the-libname-decided-by-upstream.diff

I modified the configure script and not the configure.ac because the patch is
not worth have to depend on autotools to regenerate the configure.

That should also be upstreamed (if one of you could do it it would be great :))

Best regards,
Bapt
