I'm quite sure PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH already allow you to mess quite freely. That's why we have the -E flag. I'm -0.5 myself, though, for the reason that it complicates the startup process a little bit more, without looking very compelling. It smells disturbingly like LD_PRELOAD to me. > The simple -C option doesn't have that problem, though, and could be > used as infrastructure in a process infrastructure framework to > provide enhanced configuration of Python subprocesses.
