The only way I can read this to make sense is that you somehow
consider the Python installation as part of your development
environment (you mentioned source control earlier in the thread -
surely you don't manage your Python installation in source control -
binaries, stdlib, etc?). I can't see why you would do this, and it
certainly doesn't seem like a reasonable thing to do to me.

Can you clarify?
