Hmmmm...Python 2.3.4 isn't very old, and the source code does contain
a PyDict_Copy() function. The only newer version is 2.4, and it
was released in late November. I was wondering if it was a dynamic
linking issue, like plpython.so not finding libpython*.
Does PostgreSQL's configure script check versions for Perl, Python,
Tcl, etc.? If the version matters then configure ought to complain
about it.
