You're right: my wide build is not Python3, just Python2.  In fact,
it's even worse, because it's the stock build on Linux, which seems
on this machine to be 2.6 not 2.7.

I have private builds that are 2.7 and 3.2, but those are both narrow.
I do not have a 3.3 build.  Should I?

I'm remembering why I removed Python2 from my Unicode talk, because
of how it made me pull my hair out.  People at the talk wanted to know
what I meant, but I didn't have time to go into it.  I think this
gets added to the hairpulling list.
