Python 3.2

Summary

Update the Python 3 stack in Fedora from 3.1 to 3.2

Fedora 14 schedule currently has feature freeze on 2010-07-27

Upstream release schedule currently has first alpha release on 2010-06-26, final release on 2010-12-11

So for Fedora 14 to have Python 3.2 we'd have to ship a pre-release version. Given that Python 3 isn't on the critical path, that's not unreasonable.

We're now compiling Python3 with support for computed goto's in the interpreter mainloop. This can speedup execution of python code by as much as 17%. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=566770
