I never did find where the stderr is being written to, but I did find
my problem. My /usr/bin/python was version 1.52 and the MoinMoin
package was expecting version 2.2. I changed this and the MoinMoin
stuff works fine now, but a bunch of the Python system administration
stuff tools are broken now. :(

I'm leaving it as is for now because I don't feel like figuring out
which version of python each script needs.
