It seems unfortunate to put that long complicated mess into the path, 
and then have to redo it when python 2.5 comes out.

Bob's unofficial 2.4.1 installer puts links in /usr/local/bin. Will the 
universal build do that as well? Then all one needs to do is make sure 
/usr/local/bin in on the path.
