I decided to build the simple embedding demo in Demo/embed/. After
fixing the Makefile (checkins coming), I ended up with one problem:
the 'import site.py' failed error. When using -v I get this traceback:
'import site' failed; traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site.py", line 146, in ?
sys.setdefaultencoding('ascii')
LookupError: no codec search functions registered: can't find encoding
Is there some part of the initialization that I'm forgetting?
