[mod_python] ANN: Vampire 1.6 is now available.

I have heard that with some Linux distros that Python distutils which
"setup.py" uses doesn't work properly if you don't have the full
python-dev version of Pythoninstalled.

Thus, see if the Debian packaging system provides a "python" and
"python-dev" package and make sure you install both.
