	I'm a newbie with GTK on the Mac, but i just ran across this issue while doing the basic compile.  Just running "jhbuild bootstrap" compiles the bootstrap portion with the following message at the end:

> I: some modules (python) were automatically ignored as a sufficient enough version was found installed on your system. Use --ignore-system if you want to build them nevertheless.

	So evidently "-ignore-system" forces the build of all modules, even the ones that duplicate what is already provided.  Presumably some of the system python stuff has been found insufficient?
