I'm trying to add support for the --interactive and -s flags for
pre/post install scripts.

To do that, I needed to modify either AnacondaKSParser in
kickstart.py, or KickstartParser in
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pykickstart/parser.py.

If I modified pykickstart.py, I have to rebuild another rpm
package, pykickstart.  If I modify kickstart.py, I have to
rebuild anaconda, which I'm doing already.  It seemed simpler to
jus modify AnacondaKSParser.
