My friend, it seems as though you've exhausted all avenues and explored all options. Now you need to contact upper management. I'd dare say you should go further! Yes. I'd say you should contact the great Guido van Rossum himself and bring this atrocious patching system to his attention. If no one in the community has the time to patch a bug in the source, then by god GvR needs to step forth and earn that "Benevolent" scout patch. I mean, he has the 20% time from Google for which he can do whatever he likes. What did he think, we were going to let him veg out on the couch watching re-runs of Monty Pythons Flying Circus! He'll end up like Shatner for christ sakes! I want to see him mingling with the masses and manning the trenches. I want to see him shaking hands and kissing babies! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
