[mod_python] Access to apache namespace in PythonPath

There is definitely value to machine-generated configuration.

What I am not sure about is the value of the automation residing within
httpd itself.

I.e., why not have the apachectl script call a Python script to generate
the server config from scratch just before starting the server?

BTW, mod_python even includes some code that could be useful in this
respect - it's in the test suite, the httpdconf.py module.
