Don't know about this bit - I still get a bus error.

I could be missing the point a bit here as I (obviously) get a terminal
window within the IDE.

However...

(why no bus error?)

Puts the modules (at least MySQLdb from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python) into the right place, ie the
Framework python with no API mismatches or the like.

I've just run a quick MySQL python script in the IDE and it works :)

*Very* nice! - now, about that AdvancedEditor patch ...
