It was more work than I had hoped for, because Eric apparently (despite having developer privileges!) doesn't use the CVS tree -- he sent in a diff relative to the 2.0 release. I munged it into place, adding the feature that readline, _curses and bsdddb are built as shared libraries by default. You'd have to edit Setup.config.in to change this. Hope this doesn't break anybody's setup. (Skip???) Question for Eric: do you still want developer privileges? They come with responsibilities too. Please check out the @#$%& CVS tree! :-) --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
