For FreeBSD I committed a workaround (See
http://projects.blender.org/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/blender/source/gameengine/Expressions/KX_Python.h
revision 1.6 , I got this from Andreas Kasparz, who came up with the
same idea as Kester Maddock did in april 2005) such that Python 2.4 and
2.5 are now OK with the game engine (it was stuck on 2.3).

Interesting side note : The problem is with Python, from Andreas: "In
".../Include/pyport.h" the pythoneers mix aspects of the internal
implementation of the python interpreter and its external representation"
