cd7d60e242 Allow Python to build on loongson. Bring in some libffi fixes, inspired
by jasper@'s fixes to the libffi port.

Mark mips64 (aka, sgi) as BROKEN, as the build fails.  We'll look closer
at this after unlock.

OK jasper@

ports is unlocked for a while only for those who have been informed.

4a2084109b update to maintenance release 2.6.3, relnotes at:
http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.3/NEWS.txt

NB. regress tests are known to fail if py-xml is installed. Try to spend
less time than I did in figuring this out.

d71b9a7269 Updates and garbage collect all three Python ports:
2.4.4 => 2.4.8
    2.5.2 => 2.5.4
    2.6 => 2.6.1

Python 2.4 and 2.5 lose their build knobs to match 2.6.

Removes no longer needed Python 2.5 security patches backported
from the release25-maint SVN branch.

Remove the -bz2 subpackage from all three versions. It is silly
to make a subpackage to avoid depending on something tiny and
compatibly licensed.

Python 2.4 and 2.5 lose their -expat subpackages; expat has been
in base for some time.

Python 2.5 loses its sqlite subpackge. Again, sqlite is tiny,
compatibly licensed and is depended upon by more and more
applications. This brings it into line with the 2.6 version.

Rework all three version's handling of setup.py. Rather than regex
replacing LOCALBASE and X11BASE into setup.py post-configure, these
are passed in though environment variables. Will save hours of
frustrated cursing familiar to anyone who has accidently used the
update-patches target after configure and had to go back and redo
all the substitutions.

Rework the patching of setup.py for 2.4 and 2.5 to be more like
what we do for 2.6. I.e. keep the diff minimal and avoid deleting
huge blocks of code, so the diff has a chance of applying without
massive hand-editing each patch release.

Fix .py paths in installed .pyc files (patch from eric@)

feedback from several, particularly eric@, ajacoutot@ and Ingo
Schwarze; "get it in" ajacoutot@
