Spot on, Walter!
I was just going to indicate that I figured that out.
Thank you!

Why does one *need* to indicate that? Shouldn't Python be more clueful?
I shouldn't have to open the Makefile to find out that that's a *hidden*
option.
Perl figures these things out, and always makes the correct choice(s)
based on what it finds. Other things do the same.
IMHO as it is, lang/python is broken.

Thanks again, Walter. Much appreciated!
