subversion seems specific to CPython (and in fact, to the current
development processes for CPython - if we moved to a DVCS like
Mercurial or Bazaar, sys.subversion would have to go, or at least
change meaning significantly).
That's true. I put it there originally because I thought of it as more general version info, but I can see it moving, too.

dont_write_bytecode is CPython-specific, aren't they? Jython and
IronPython don't use bytecode files as far as I know.
I can't speak for IronPython, but Jython writes compiled Java classes representing the Python. Anyway, I think this should really go in imp.
The rest looks OK to me.
