There are now 98 packages! Ok, so a few too many changes in one commit
and I'll attempt to avoid that going forward. But we're near 100
packages now (a large chunk of these are due to work from Dennis
yesterday). If we count noarch packages, we're well over 100.

Now. What we need to do is bootstrap python. We can think about that
next week. My suggestion is that we need to consider hooking up an
ability to run an existing python over some kind of socket (a "lite"
form of something like scratchbox), since a lot of python needs python.
Or we bootstrap by cross building python, or we hack around a lot.
Discussion please :)

Jon.
