Using USE_PYTHON=3D2.4+ will still install python2.5 by default but whoul= dn't prevent the port form being installed on python2.4. So where is the gain = in your decision. Python2.4 is still widely used. E.g. Zope doesn't run on 2.5 so all users= of Zope have still 2.4 installed. Your decision causes many problems without= any gain.
