[Stackless] FreeBSD install question

I am trying to build on FreeBSD 4.3, but my build fails.  I couldn't find any details Unix install instructions so here's what I am doing...

tar zxvf Python-2.0.1.tgz 		# the closest i could find to 2.0.42
ln -s Python-2.0.1 Python-2.0	# the patch was against a 2.0 directory
patch < Python-2.0.42-S1.4.18.patch	

Everything appeared to go well, except that several files were created in my current directory, outside the source trees: uthread.py, python.h, continuationmodule.c, cevalpatch.py, ceval_pre.c, Setup.local.

./configure runs fine.  make says it doesn't know how to make  continuationmodule.c:

In file included from /usr/include/unistd.h:42,
                 from ./socketmodule.c:100:

I grepped through the different Makefiles and Modules/Makefile looked like the one, so I copied continuationmodule.c (created outside the build tree by patch) into the Modules directory and ran make again...

./continuationmodule.c:4791: redefinition of `check_version'

*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/local/src/stackless/Python-2.0.1/Modules.
*** Error code 1

Am I missing something?  Does anyone have detailed instructions for building stackless on Unix?

Thanks!

Jacob
