    I also have modified source rpms for rh7.  If you want to recompile
python 2.0 from source the thing yu should be aware of is that libdb is 
actually the db3 lib on rh7.  You need to change the includes for db.h
to point to db1/db.h and change the -ldb to -ldb1.  I can send you my 
spec file and the patches to create a binary rpm for python 2 if you want
them.
