There is no such file in the Python lib directory on my system.  (I ran
'find' from the root of the directory tree to verify that it doesn't
exist anywhere.)  As I can access it when running as root, I'm assuming
that it's built-in somehow.  I agree that it seems like a permission
problem, but...

Thanks anyway.  Any other suggestions, anyone?
