Might that appear to work at first, but leave some subtle issues which are
not at first apparent? I don't know how intertwined Apple's Python instance
is in the day-to-day operation of the operating system (it certainly seems
to be on some Linux distros), but it's possible that some Apple-specific
package isn't available at part of the stock Python 2.7 distribution.
