Can somebody make an spkg of this?  Could one build Sage on top of it
(instead of Python-2.6.2?).

I tried typing

  svn checkout 
http://unladen-swallow.googlecode.com/svn/branches/release-2009Q2-maint
unladen-2009Q2

and got

teragon-2:unladen-2009Q2 wstein$ ls
Demo            Include         Mac             Modules         PCbuild         
README          Util            install-sh
Doc             LICENSE         Makefile.pre.in Objects         Parser          
RISCOS          configure       pyconfig.h.in
Grammar         Lib             Misc            PC              Python          
Tools           configure.in    setup.py

teragon-2:... wstein$ more README
This is Python version 2.6.1
============================
...

So maybe it works just like Python at this point?

(To make an spkg of this, just take the python-2.6.2.spkg from
sage-4.1.tar, and replace src by the above unladen-2009Q2 directory,
then try ty build all of Sage from scratch by typing "make".)
