[mod_python] Persistent objects in sub-interpreters

For a start, read:

  http://www.dscpl.com.au/wiki/ModPython/Articles/TheProcessInterpreterModel

So, taking fact that Apache can be multiprocess into account, use
global variables within a module. Best to use a module which can't be
reloaded though. Ie., one on sys.path and not in document tree.
