We're delivering the other two that seemed interesting to me: pycurl and
SAT solver.  I'm not sure what crypto package Brock has settled on for
manifest signing, but it might be good to make sure that gets some
optimizer love by default.

The only other case I can think of is the zlib module, but I assume that
gets the same optimization as python itself.
