Yes, I am sure. Python 2.4 had been ported more than 5 years ago by a former
workmate, otherwise we wouldn't even have that.

For this platform (HP NonStop) basically nothing is available from any
repository on the web but ITUGLIB (http://ituglib.connect-community.org) and
that's the machine I'm working on/for ;-)
We're currently trying to port Python-2.7, but it ain't easy...
