Oops. Seems the current snapshot is broken. 
lib/python is the new python interface to librfxswf- the Makefile
is already in the configure, but the file itself wasn't yet 
included in my release build script...

Oh yes, gcc 2.95.x, the good old times. ;)

I hope woody will upgrade to gcc 3.x.x some day, I don't know how long
I'll be able to prevent myself from writing constructs like

    {int a;
     a=3;
     int b;
    }

which are allowed in gcc 3.x.x, but not in 2.95.x (I develop with the
former, so I usually do not even get a warning if I do this).

I fixed them for now, and checked it into CVS. I'll also update the
snapshot tomorrow or on Sunday.

Greetings
