Title: Fixed python targets for 2.7.3.

Removed the ```--with-zlib``` configure option because it is unrecognized in 2.7.3, and python will find the ```zlib``` library as long as ```build-essential``` is installed (which we recommend in the docs).

We have to set ```LD_LIBRARY_PATH``` (see [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/7880519) for details) because otherwise running our custom built python will load the incorrect libpython from the system (version 2.7.2+, which is incompatible with python 2.7.3).

I tested this pretty thoroughly on EC2 and it appears to work.
