Prevent compile errors of OS X Carbon modules _Fm, _Qd, and _Qdoffs when
compiling with an SDK of 10.7 or later. The OS X APIs they wrap have long
been deprecated and have now been removed with 10.7. These modules were
already empty for 64-bit builds and have been removed in Python 3.

OS X Xcode 4 - improve support for universal extension modules In
particular, fix extension module build failures when trying to use
32-bit-only installer Pythons on systems with Xcode 4 (currently OS X 10.8, 10.7,
and optionally 10.6). * Backport 3.3.0 fixes to 2.7 branch (for release in
2.7.4) * Since Xcode 4 removes ppc support, extension module builds now
check for ppc compiler support and by default remove ppc and ppc64 archs
when they are not available. * Extension module builds now revert to using
system installed headers and libs (/usr and /System/Library) if the SDK
used to build the interpreter is not installed or has moved. * Try to
avoid building extension modules with deprecated and problematic Apple
llvm-gcc compiler. If original compiler is not available, use clang
instead by default.
