bibtex parsing

Can anyone recommend a pure Python parser
of BibTeX files? Ideally MIT or BSD licensed?

Online search some possibilities:
http://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/bibliograph.parsing/trunk/bibliograph/parsing/parsers/bibtex.py
http://www.geocities.com/fiolj/bibtexparse.html
http://www.cis.udel.edu/~sprenkle/bibtex2html/bibtex2xml.py
Despite the current licenses, I'd appreciate info on these too.

Also, there was a rumor that PyParsing was to become
part of the standard library, but I do not see it at
http://docs.python.org/modindex.html
False rumor?  Has anyone tried parsing BibTeX with PyParsing?

Thanks,
Alan Isaac
