embedded python and interpreter threads

[Charlie DeTar]

Quick correction, sorry - the command should read like this (I had 
omitted the "log" before 'CaptureStdout' and 'CaptureStderr').  Same 
problems exist.

      PyRun_SimpleString(
          "import log\n"
          "import sys\n"
          "class StdoutCatcher:\n"
          "\tdef write(self, str):\n"
          "\t\tlog.CaptureStdout(str)\n"
          "class StderrCatcher:\n"
          "\tdef write(self, str):\n"
          "\t\tlog.CaptureStderr(str)\n"
          "sys.stdout = StdoutCatcher()\n"
          "sys.stderr = StderrCatcher()\n");
