I'm respectfully looking forward to any kind words
addressing the following situation and/or questions.

SITUATION
As part of the annual spring cleaning updates, I did

1.  Compile and Install Python-2.7.4, configured with
    "--enable-unicode=ucs4".

2.  Attempt to compile Glib-2.34.3
    Here, the compile fails ignominiously with the notorious
    symbol, "PyUnicodeUCS2_DecodeUTF8", undefined.

3.  Recompile and Reinstall Python-2.7.4 configured withOUT
    "--enable-unicode=ucs4" (i.e., configured with ucs2).

4.  Compile and Install Glib-2.34.3 successfully.  End of story.

QUESTIONS
1. If I stay at ucs2, any problems now and in the future?

2. Is there a way for me to be sure the system is _clean_ on ucs2
   without any "remnant" pockets of utc4 hiding somewhere?

3. Is there, somewhere, some software lurking around assuming
   it were on ucs4 and rearing their ugly head at the worst
   possible time?

3. Other?

Thanking in advance,
-- Alex
