Python 3 ABI change (PEP 3149)

[David Malcolm]

I've built python-3.2b2 into rawhide as python3-3.2-0.6.b2.fc15
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=212004

This version is the first to hit rawhide with PEP 3149, which is another
ABI change.

It's a somewhat ironic change, in that the in-DSO ABI hasn't really
changed, so much as the SONAME of the python 3 library has changed, to
add a tag that expresses which version of the ABI it uses.  This also
affects some import paths.

Specifically, the SONAME has changed from
  libpython3.2.so.1.0
to
  libpython3.2mu.so.1.0

The "mu" expresses buildtime configuration that affects the ABI.
  "m" => --with-pymalloc
  "u" => --with-wide-unicode
  
The debug version of that library is "libpython3.2dmu.so.1.0"

Similarly, all compiled python modules change extension, from being
merely:
   foo.so
to:
   foo.cpython-32mu.so

See http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3149/ for details.

Any python3 rpms that have compiled modules will need rebuilding.

I've rebuilt almost all of the compiled modules I know about [1].

An exception is python3-cairo, which I've filed as:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=666297


Hope this is helpful, and that I didn't break anything
