Summary: "make pdf" failure w/ 2.4 docs

Initial Comment:
When attempting to build the pdf version of the 
documentation from CVS, I get the following 
error: 
 
(/.../python/dist/src/Doc/lib/libxmlrpclib.tex 
... 
! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [input stack 
size=1500]. 
\font at name -> 
             \OT1/phv/m/n/10 
l.259 ...//www.xmlrpc.com/discuss/msgReader\208} 
                                                  , an 
approach 
!  ==> Fatal error occurred, the output PDF file 
is not finished! 
 
The '$' in line 259 of libxmlrpclib.tex seems to 
trip up pdflatex.  If '%24' is substituted for '$', 
the link still works, and lib.pdf will build. 
 
Info about my version of pdflatex & linux: 
$ pdflatex --version 
pdfTeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 3.14159-1.10b 
kpathsea version 3.4.5 
... 
$ cat /proc/version 
Linux version 2.6.5-7.95-default 
(geeko at buildhost) (gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE 
Linux)) #1 Thu Jul 1 15:23:45 UTC 2004
