I have recently come across a somewhat surprising issue:
I installed py27-mpi4py which depends on mpich2 and python27. I was surprised 
to see that mpich2 itself depends on python25. Can someone explain to me why 
that should be the case? The same is true for py26-mpi4py. 

I have played around with the Portfile, replacing the references in mpich2 to 
python25 with python27 and it installs perfectly. I have not done any other 
tests, though. So the question is: is this dependency on python25 a necessity 
or can it be replaced with python2[67]?
