 This patch is a fix for Ubuntu 11.04. Ubuntu already patch their python
 like this.  It is not a python bug. It is the Ubuntu+python combination,
 see the above thread for an answer I got from bugs.python.org.

 If this harms building on other systems, I can make it specific to
 checking the Ubuntu version and only then applying the patch (using
 lsb_release -d).

 To test, untar SAGE_ROOT/spkg/standard/python-2.6.4.p9.spkg, in there
 replace with attached versions:

 SPKG.txt
 spkg-install
 patches/Setup.dist
 patches/Setup.dist.patch

 tar up as python 2.6.4.p10.spkg
 sage -f python-2.6.4.p10.spkg

 Revert with sage -f python-2.4.6.p9.spkg
