OpenSSL support. Having OpenSSL available at the time the core interpreter is
built enables all kinds of important crypto features (i.e. additional hashlib
algorithms, etc.) that otherwise won't be available.

The build expression for python contains code that patches all occurrences of
impure paths like "/usr" and "/opt" out of "setup.py". The same code must be
run when building a python module, too.

remove the pythonModules attribute. The built-in modules are now
accessible as (e.g.) "python.modules.ssl" or "pythonPackages.ssl".

differs from the mtime of the source file. This doesn't work in Nix
because Nix changes the mtime of files in the Nix store to 1. So
treat that as a special case.
Yes, this should make Python programs faster.

additional dependencies (e.g. SQLite, X11, or Tcl/Tk) outside the
main Python package (i.e., pythonBase). This makes pythonFull
unnecessary: you can just pass the additional modules as
buildInputs to packages that require them, e.g.
buildInputs = [ pythonModules.sqlite3 ];

The python wrapper expression expects a list of Python modules, $extraLibs,
which are added to $PYTHONPATH before executing the actual Python interpreter.

If a build expressions has set "enableParallelBuilding = true", then the
generic builder may utilize more than one CPU core to build that particular
expression. This feature works out of the box for GNU Make. Expressions that
use other build drivers like Boost.Jam or SCons have to specify appropriate
flags such as "-j${NIX_BUILD_CORES}" themselves.

Python version 3.x is really quite different from 2.x. Using a new name
for the package prevents Nix from performing unintended updates to the
3.x version.

- cleanup python libraries:
* moving all python libraries into a attr set into a directory
so that expressions can be used for both: python 2.5 and 2.6 easily
* disabling packages which don't build
svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=21142
* Dropped "nolongdouble.patch". The patch no longer applies to Python 2.6, and
apparently isn't required anymore either.
* Added access to native Darwin arch utility. Python tries to run 'arch' in
the configure stage, but that binary reside in /usr/bin. To make it
available to the expression, the small wrapper darwinArchUtility is added as
a buildInput if appropriate.
* Don't pass --enable-shared. The build fails if we try to enable building of
shared libraries, apparently because some required libraries aren't linked,
i.e. the linker call isn't right.
TODO:
* Figure out how to enable shared linking.
* The resulting binary on Darwin seem to lack the binascii module.

The build succeeds on i686-linux. Other platforms look good, too,
because there were hardly any changes necessary to update the expression
from 2.5.
