[omniORB] RPM spec: python 2.0 dependency?

I'm not certain if "contrib/RPMs" is the same as the RPMs Sander and I 
are building and posting. The spec file was developed from one done by 
others for 3.x omniORB (so there is nothing Mandrake-specific about its 
origins). I haven't run with pre-2.0 Python in a long time, and without 
testing do not know whether in fact there is no problem with doing so.

If you (or someone) has a chance to do at least moderate testing then 
report back and we can update the spec file to relax the version 
requirement.

Or, update your copy of the spec file then rebuild and send 'em to me 
and we'll post the built RPMs so others in the same rev-locked boat can 
try them out.
