You can also build python on your own by downloading the source from 
www.python.org and then use the extension modules with your build.  The 
pydebug builds (use --with-pydebug when configuring on unix-like 
systems) can be quite helpful when developing extension modules but 
extension modules need to be rebuilt to work with a pydebug build.
