#163 Build error with python-3

[dilawars]

On arch-linux, with python-3 the compilation is failing. This is OK with python-2. The compiler is gcc-5.1.0.

It is not clear what CMake is doing, please compare with the Makefile results.

Please check if your Python headers are correct. Python 3 header should define PY_MAJOR_VERSION >= 3, which is checked in moosemodule.h:Line#64. However, you need to update your sources to get fixes in PyRun to handle Python3.

Please check revision 6721. It works with Python 3 for me. You need to convert the .py files in python/moose directory to Python 3 though:
2to3 -w *.py.
