interesting...  there's plenty of information that considers 2.6 to be 
backwards compatible, but most references don't mention the extra 
deprecation warnings

something I noticed (checked in OpenSolaris b111a):  amp-dev depends on 
SUNWpython-twisted which depends on SUNWpython (2.4)...  b111a has a 
SUNWpython25-twisted but not a SUNWpython26-twisted

I dunno exactly which Python ancillary packages in the base repo we 
consider to be part of the web stack anyway.  The web stack repo has a 
number of python packages, and they depend on SUNWpython (2.4).
