Peter Eisentraut 04aad40186 Drop support for Python 2.3
There is no specific reason for this right now, but keeping support for
old Python versions around indefinitely increases the maintenance
burden.  The oldest supported Python version is now Python 2.4, which is
still shipped in RHEL/CentOS 5 by default.

In configure, add a check for the required Python version and give a
friendly error message for an old version, instead of relying on an
obscure build error later on.

# In modern, well-configured Python installations, LIBDIR gives the correct

# possible that the shlib is in a standard library directory such as /usr/lib
# so that LIBDIR is irrelevant. Also, some packagers put the .so symlink for
# the shlib in ${python_configdir} even though Python itself never does.
# We must also check that what we found is a shared library not a plain
