[Python-Dev] Removing modules

[Andrew Kuchling]

For the "deleted modules" section of the 2.0 article, I drew up a list
of modules that might be outdated, mostly the SGI-specific ones.  Are
those modules still useful, and do the libraries they were written for
still exist?

For your cogitation, here's the list: sgimodule.c, glmodule.c (and
hence cgenmodule.c), imgfile.c, svmodule.c, flmodule.c, fmmodule.c,
almodule.c, clmodule.c,  knee.py.

Also, can someone explain why importing a third party extension built
for Python 1.5.x is supposed to result in an immediate crash on
Windows?  I'd like to explain why this happens...
