This is an "it's not me, it's them" moment.  I'm limited by the
offerings we have in our datacenters.  Since run a large production
network, we sacrifice flexibility for predictability.  That means I
don't have anything available to me other than Cent OS 5.2 and 5.4.
My desktop runs Xubuntu quite nicely.

For what it's worth, I enable debugging in settings_local.py and it
looks like there's something about the login page that
Djblets-0.7.2-py27 doesn't like.  This is after the stack trace I put
in the above email.

"""
Exception Type: TypeError at /account/login/
Exception Value: string indices must be integers, not str
"""

Hopefully I'll be able to narrow this down.
