Thanks!

I'm about to check this stuff in. I've made two minor changes to 
your module (adding a reopen() call and changing the _code), and 
I've restructured things slightly: this module is now called 
builtin_Suite in a package _builtinSuites, with a handwritten 
__init__ module that maps both 'core' and 'reqd' to 
builtin_Suite. The advantage of this is that no magic is needed 
in gensuitemodule: builtinSuites is now simply the base package 
for StdSuites (as StdSuites is for all other suites).
