What you need is to put salt on the tail of a broken header or two; then
you could play with it until you could handle at least them.

Alas I through my broken headers away (and I'd guess Troy did too).  I
therefore have no idea why they were broken in the first place or where
they were broken.  Next time I get an error like this, though, I'll try
to send you the contents of the header directory to debug with.

I'd debug it myself, except that (as previously noted) I will learn
python only if somebody ties me to a table and threatens me with hot
irons.  Too many programming languages...

Historically this (hot irons) happens every year or two (seems like) so
I'll probably be programming in it regularly by mid-2003...;-)
