+ How It Is Implemented
  
!     Sumo-Python is basically be a set of scripts, which download
!     a Python source tarball, and source tarballs for all the modules.
!     Then it unpacks everything, modifies Setup.in (or whatever mechanism
!     will be in place by Python 2.1, and puts in a little
!     shell script which builds everything. Then it will repack it
!     into the huge tarball which will be a sumo-python-version.tar.gz,
!     which users can then download and install.
  
!     Inside the tarball, running the script
  
!     build-everything [--prefix ...]
  
!     Will compile and install a sumo interpreter into specified prefix.
