I've currently got python-2p3 (pth) on my systems - it was built
before I upgraded to 2.0.  I've just been playing at installing Plone,
and python appears to run out of stack and die.

I suspect it's time to re-build python for 2.0, but do I still want
the pth version (will it use the native pthreads on 2.0?) or
just the normal version - will that then get pthreads anyway?

BTW, I had no trouble building zope 2.7.4 by just saying
--with-python=/usr/pkg/bin/python (which I symlink to python-2p3 -
otherwise it found python-2p3 and didn't recognize it as 2.3).

Thanks
