Coke,

This has been come up a couple of times either on list or on #parrot. 
And the same question has been raised about config/auto/m4.pm.

Other things being equal, I'm in favor of this.  Hey!  Two fewer config
steps to have to maintain or test!

But then I grepped for the string 'python' (upper or lower case) in the
distro and came up with the list of files attached.  Before we remove
config/auto/python.pm, we should assess what the impact would be on each
of these 81 files -- which includes a lot of source code.
