I checked this, and I see the same thing, but I think this also affects
pointyhat.  Think of it this way.  When INDEX is built, skencil will
have a Python 2.4 dependency, but py-imaging, for example, will have its
INDEX entry built for Python 2.5.  Therefore, you will get into the same
problem.  I'm not sure there is anything that can be done here, but I'm
open to ideas or any proof that my assumption is wrong.
