My fear is what we face in the Zope world---different distributions break
in totally diffrent ways, and sometimes we have to ask 30 questions to figure
out what might be going wrong :/  The nice thing is hat if someone installes
Python from the source, we know what's going to happen.  I don't know if
this is solvable, honestly.

I think Guido just wants to IPO and retire :-)
