I don't know, but I will say that I don't like the way the Mailman RPM
in FC1 does it.  It includes the .pyc files _and_ it has a postinstall
script that promptly deletes them all and rebuilds them.  This means
that "rpm -qV mailman" lists all the .pyc files as changed immediately
after the RPM is installed.
