Hrm, I must have forgotten it in the package's MANIFEST.in. Sorry.

Hrm, in FreeBSD, forkpty is in -lutil, so I'm not positive the attached patch
will work for you, but you can give it a shot. Apply it against setup.py in the
'be' directory. Sadly, it may still be missing other dependencies. :(

Also, would you mind sending me your Python config/Makefile file, if you have
one? (It should be at "lib/python2.4/config/Makefile"; that is the 'lib'
directory in the prefix that you installed Python 2.4 into.)
