Pyrex fails to build in a current sid chroot, since it fails to build-depend
on python, and python2.3 (correctly) does not Depend: python.

Installing only python-2.3-dev (and python-2.3) does not give you a
/usr/bin/python.

Failure to build from source is a serious bug if it fails on any machine
that has previously built the package. i386 qualifies at this time.

The fix is to add 'python' to your Build-Depends: list.
