That works -- as long as I am willing to deinstall the python 2.7.8
documentation first.  I suppose I could create a package for the 2.7.8
documentation, "upgrade," and then circumvent the ports system to
reinstall the old files by hand, but I was hoping not to have to do
that.                                                    -- George
