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).
'{{{11243-build-crypto-on-Ubuntu-11.04.patch}}}' is for review purposes
only.
An updated package, which should fix the problem can be found at:

Comment:
I've created a package which I think addresses the problem although I
can't check it as I don't have a Ubuntu 11.04 system set up. This should
* Use a portable method to check for Ubuntu 11.04 which will not generate
any error messages on systems which do not have the '{{{lsb_release}}}'
command.
* Builds the '{{{crypto}}}' module on Ubuntu 11.04
* Changes the method of checking that the '{{{haslib}}}' and '{{{math}}}'
modules import properly by using a loop rather than repeating almost
identical code.
* Check that the '{{{crypto}}}' module actually imports properly on
Ubuntu 11.04
