The tournament environment only provides python 2.5 which lacks some important
features (e.g. signal.setitimer to have accurate timout notification without
having to resolve to polling time.time())
I've put together a script at https://gist.github.com/269523868dc79e21f75f that
installs a independent python2.7 into /opt/python2.7 without disturbing the
system provided python 2.5 and symlinks python2.7 and easy_install-2.7 into
/usr/local/bin
