Hi,
   I was wondering if anyone has had luck using Pillow (
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow) instead of PIL for the dev image API.  I 
am trying to automate installing PIL on a 64 bit machine, and PIL misses 
jpeg and zip (png) support that Pillow actually picks up.  The issue I am 
seeing now is that with Pillow the following imports work:

import PIL
from PIL import Image
import _imaging

but these do not:
import Image
from PIL import _imaging

Taking a look at images_stub.py (around line 32) this combination of imports 
will still throw an ImportError, and indeed the dev server says that PIL is 
unavailable.

However, I could not figure out where _imaging was being used anywhere in 
the codebase, and after commenting out those two imports, I was able to use 
the dev imaging API without a problem.  Why are those imports needed?  Also, 
is this just a crazy setup that I have, or have other people run into this 
when trying to install PIL on a 64 bit machine?  This is a Fedora box, btw.

Thanks in advance,
 - Justin
