I was going by the list on the wiki. BeOS was on that list. I removed it
in a single checkin so if it's decided in the near future to put it back
that should be easy to do.

I'm curious about this Syllable thing. It is a fork of AtheOS, appears
to be currently maintained, and advertises that Python is supported. I
posted a note to a discussion forum asking whether Syllable relies on the
AtheOS bits:
http://www.syllable.org/discussion.php?topic_id=2320
and got a reply back saying that yes, they do use the AtheOS stuff. I will
hold off on removing the AtheOS bits until we clear up things with the
Syllable folks.
