  Where?

  Note that you don't use this in python-dateutil and everything works as 
expected.

  I noticed also that as an example rpm-python from Core:
$ ll `rpm -ql rpm-python`
...
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rpm:

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 66996 Jul 13 16:45 _rpmdb.so

  I can understand why the shared libraries are marked as executables but I 
don't see a reason for python files outside of a */bin directory being like 
that.
