What is the reason to leave out some modules? At least you won't save 
processing time, since modules has to be imported anyway using the import 
statement.

I'll use this in a CGI script in UNIX. The server is on a web hotel, so I 
guess there is no possibility other than asking the Python administrator to 
recompile it with this module included, right? Or can I put only crypt in 
my own directory?
