There is a bug in python which only shows up on sun4s (so far).  If
you are using stdwin, all calls to the function drawing_generic in the
python source file "stdwinmodule.c" should have "return " in front of
them.  This will be fixed in official patch#2, but I thought I'd put
out an early warning just in case somebody is actually using python
with stdwin on a sun4...
