But the odd this is that with Python 2.2.1, it should auto-detect and
automatically build the pwd module, without hacking Setup.  If id
doesn't do that, then there's a problem with the Python build process,
but I didn't see that when I built it on SourceForge's compile farm.

  You have a module "pwd" in python2.../Modules/Setup
which it´s commented, just uncomment that and
re-compile python and if it´s necesary MM too...
