Description SpanKY gentoo-dev

from the configure output:
checking for rl_pre_input_hook in -lreadline... no

looking at config.log it's because it tries to do '-lreadline -ltermcap' ... really it should be doing '-lreadline -lncurses'

adding this patch to python-2.3.5 and python-2.4 and also autoconf into python

actually on second thought, i'm not going to add autoconf to the deps because i'm worried it might break bootstrap, revising patch

ok, committed revised patches, also fixed up some things in DEPEND/RDEPEND for the ~x86 versions of python 2.3 amd 2.4
