2.2.0 was built with old autotools, and it's incompatible with Python
2.6. Rebuilding with a newer autotools version fixes this.

Since:

a) We released 2.2.0 already (and replacing it would be bad)
b) 2.2.0 was built with a broken autotools, and doesn't work with python 2.6
c) stable-2.2 has already been forwarded to 2.2.1~rc0

I propose releasing 2.2.0.1 as "just" a tag, with the following changes on top 
of 2.2.0.
No code changes needed, just NEWS and configure.ac update, and a re-release.
We'll later merge the tag in the stable-2.2 release.

The proper fix for 2.2.1 on will be to fail on autogen.sh if the autotools 
version is older than a certain version.
(will send that patch next week).
