This change solves two problems encountered by users of the macOS Python Launcher app on recent macOS releases (10.14+):

- The launcher app was no longer able to launch the macOS Terminal.app to run a script.

- Even if Terminal.app was already launched, the launcher app was unable to send an Apple Event to Terminal.app to open and run Python with the desired .py file.

This reverts commit 0da5466.

The commit is causing make failures on a FreeBSD buildbot.
Due to the imminent 3.9.0b1 cutoff, revert this commit for
now pending further investigation.

Add support to the configure script for OBJC and OBJCXX command line options so that the macOS builds can use the clang compiler for the macOS-specific Objective C source files. This allows third-party compilers, like GNU gcc, to be used to build the rest of the project since some of the Objective C system header files are not compilable by GNU gcc.

  Fix for issue #3646: with this patch it is possible to do a
  framework install of Python in your home directory (on OSX):

     $ configure --enable-framework=${HOME}/Library/Frameworks
     $ make && make install

  Without this patch the framework would get installed just fine,
  but 'make install' would try to install the application bundles
  and command-line tools outside the user's home, which doesn't work
  for non-admin users (and is bad form anyway).
........

* Ensure that framework install works given the
  recent CFLAGS and BASECFLAGS changes

directory structure isn't used during the build and
causes problems when you do build without a separate
build directory.

Fixes issue 5267

  Remove usage of the deprecated '-cString' and '+stringWithCString:' API's
  in PythonLauncher, replacing them with the correct counterparts.
........

This the build machinery on OSX to re-enable building (and installing)
PythonLauncher.app and IDLE.app.

This needs ports of fixes to Lib/distutils/util.py and Include/pymacconfig.h
to be fully functiontional, to be fully functional.

I also have a patch for Makefile.pre.in that I'll post on bugs.python.org
for review.
