This is your problem: you don't have a C compiler installed.
You will need a C compiler for mxTextTools and also for biopython itself (and
for lots of other software packages that don't come precompiled).

For Mac OS X, you can download a C compiler from Apple's website. It is
called "Developer Tools" or something like that. After you install it, you
should be able to run gcc, and "python setup.py build" & "python setup.py
install" should work.
