I haven't see any issue during build or using the latest version of 0117
(please note the latest version of 0117 is 2 emails earlier in this
thread) and 0118. So it is an ACK from me for the functional part. But
since there were some discussion about the usage of the internal Python
API it would be nice if someone can check the python side as well.

bye,
Sumit
