Originally we built our own python to work around a number of bugs and 
to also remove the stock Berkeley DB bindings, which IIRC did not work 
with the version of Berkeley DB we required.

Once we migrated away from Python 2.3 we started also running into the 
situation where the system Python was either non-existent or the wrong 
version.  This continues to be a problem for us today.
