Ah, this is my cross to bear. Nothing ever works quite the same for me as
everybody else :-DD

Seriously, it's freaky.

Yep, errors out.

>>> import xfce4
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xfce4/__init__.py", line 4, in ?
    import util
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xfce4/util.py", line 3, in ?
    from _util import *
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xfce4/_util.so: undefined symbol:
pyg_set_object_has_new_constructor

...and I *definitely* have no idea what that could mean, except that my
Python doesn't recognize that 'symbol' in pyxfce as a wild guess.

lol.

If this is too much of a headache, I can wait til you code the c version, but
if ya have the time and some idea what might be wrong on my end, lemme know :-)

Thanks very much!
