am_display_PYTHON unset with user specified $PYTHON

[Esben Haabendal Soerensen]

Hi

In AM_PATH_PYTHON (both in automake 1.7.9 and 1.8.3) the 
am_display_PYTHON variable is not set when user the user set $PYTHON 
version.  Checks for version, prefix and platform doesn't display as 
nicely as they should because of this.

Something like this should do (patch against python.m4 from automake 1.8.3
(Debians 1.8.3-1 to be specific):
