  Two small fixes for the support for SDKs on MacOSX:

  1) The code that checks if an path should be located in the SDK
     explicitly excludes /usr/local. This fixes issue9046

  2) The SDK variant for filtering "db_dirs_to_check" in setup.py
     was not doing anything because of a missing assignment.

  This is needed to be able to build using the 10.4u SDK while running

  This is a fixed version of the patch in r80963, I've tested this patch
  on OSX and Linux.

  On OSX the output of "uname -m" always reflects the 32-bit architecture
  for the machine ("i386" or "ppc"), even if the executable is
  64-bit.

  This patchs ensures that the distutils platform architecture
  represents the architecture for the executable when running a
  64-bit only executable on OSX.
