my patch is here:
http://w1.132.telia.com/~u13208596/uninames-patch.txt=20

(it's ~600k, which is more than sourceforge can handle)

if you have some time to spare, feel tree to try it out on your
favourite 64-bit platform (I haven't had time to test it on our
alphas, but I'm pretty sure it'll work).

the patch doesn't update the build files, so you need to do some
manual tweaking to make sure the unicodenames module is built.

if everything works as it should, the resulting interpreter should
survive test_ucn.py even if ucnhash.pyd (.so) is nowhere to be
seen...
