I'm having a problem in choosing among the different sqlite3 distributions, and
I'd *very* much appreciate a bit of advice here.  First, my target here is a new
palmtop, somewhat out of the ordinary, named "Pandora".  This palmtop is based
upon the Texas Instruments OMAP3 System-On-a-Chip (SoC) (using the ARM7A CPU).
This OMAP3 is has very impressive specifications, but you take what you get,
it's not very open to modification or expansion.  One item on this is that it
comes with 256MB of working RAM memory.  Virtual memory can be added (the OS is
an Angstrom Linux) but it is definitely limited in memory.  I note this
specifically because I think that it makes the choice of youro "amalgamation"
not a terribly wise choice.  Using something which is broken into smaller object
loadables is a better choice for the environment, I think, and I'd appreciate
hearing your opinion on that.

The OMAP3 also hosts a dedicated DSP processor, and ships with firmware giving
an OpenGL version (embedded variety), which might make some difference to TCL
(but not, I think, SQLite3)

Further, beyond using SQLite3 directly, I want to have it integrated in both
Python and TCL.  Your TEA version seems attractive, but I can't tell from the
documentation if the TEA version will also work for integration into Python.
Will it serve for both uses, or do I need to have two different versions
installed side by side?  If I do indeed need two simultaneous versions, that
brings out reams of additional questions, so I think I want that answered first.

If it would be possible to choose one version of SQLite3 to serve as source for
the installed gcc-4.3.3 compiler, I'd very much your opinion.  Thanks for your
time.  Oh, BTW, the reason I need to worry about this is, apparently, the
pre-installed Python on the Pandora seems to have been installed with many
missing modules, so I want to reinstall Python, and I wish to have this newly
installed Python to have as much TCLTK and SQLite3 support as it allows.
