[Python-Dev] PEP 394 request for pronouncement (python2 symlink in *nix systems)

Does this need a pronouncement? Worrying about the speed of symlinks
seems silly, and exactly how the links are created (hard or soft,
chaining or direct) should be up to the distro; our own Makefile
should create chaining symlinks just so the mechanism is clear.
