This is why the .h & .c files are checked in - someone just building Python
doesn't need them regenerated at all. Only if one wants to *modify the
AST*, he'll need an up-to-date Python. Otherwise we'll have to stick to the
"oldest Python possible" for every script we use internally. I think this
was discussed on the mailing list(s) at some point.
