Hehe.

BTW, can PyChecker do Python-version enforcement?  Specifically, I think
it would be great if we had a gizmo at least to enforce 1.5.2 (besides
1.5.2 itself <wink>).

Even cooler would be if Python had some sort of feature for this.  (I'd
write a PEP for that, but I fear that it might lead to a new version
<wink>.)  But I guess for reasons of efficiency something like this
should be an "offline" tool anyway rather than pollute the innards of
Python.
