Is there any reason it doesn't? It is stunningly useful when building arbitrary
extensions
as you can build them shared and not have to relink python. Or am I
misunderstanding
something?

The last time I built the pykde stuff for FreeBSD I ran into this and ended up
hacking
together a libpython1.5.so which solved all my linking problems.
