 Actually, your patches apply to the python/Makefile.in which are
generated files, could you send a revised version of those for the
source files, i.e. the Makefile.am ones ? I can probably try to do
it but I would not be garanteed it's what you expected (use
./autogen.sh to regenerate the whole Makefile.in/configure/etc.).
A patch for just the Makefile.am should be enough, .in generated
ones are not in CVS and recreated from scratch.

  TIA,

Daniel
