  ^^^^
  Best (of course).

I've now merged the portability branch back into trunk, and updated
setup so it chooses Python 2.6. Builds OK here (10.6.7, XCode 3.2.6).

I've restored the wiki content, but have yet to make it the standard
home page (and there are still bits of it I don't understand; it got
majorly mangled somewhere along the line before I got hold of it).
