You know, hashlib, the replacement for sha and md5, was only
introduced in 2.5.  That's bleeding-edge.  I'd be happiest if sha and
md5 stuck around for a few years, to give people time to support older
installations of Python.  After all, Mac OS X still ships with Python
2.3, and lots of Linux installations ship standard with 2.4.
