audit without python?

[Jason]

Thanks for your reply Steve.  Our plan then is to install python on our 
development platform and compile audit with python support so we don't 
have to hack Makefiles.  Then we will install audit on our network 
appliance which does not have python.  Do you foresee any issues with 
doing it this way?  What functionality do we lose by not including python?
