Python

[Andre Fischer]

Hi all,

Can anybody remind me of why we bring our own Python?
Are the reasons still valid after the update to 2.7.3?
I just updated main/external_deps.lst to load the tarball from 
python.org and had almost chosen the windows binary instead of the 
source tarball.  I am now wondering why we don't have a build 
prerequisite on a pre-installed, standard Python.

Thanks,
Andre
