Three consecutive runs
time python2.3 imp.py where imp.py only contains one line : "from qt  
import *"

[roderik at Luggage examples3]$ /usr/local/bin/python2.3  
/Users/roderik/build/pyqt/PyQt-x11-gpl-snapshot-20031016/examples3/ 
canvas/canvas.py
QImage::smoothScale: Image is a null image
QImage::smoothScale: Image is a null image
QImage::smoothScale: Image is a null image
QMenuBar: Not sure how to handle accelerator 0x1010 (Home)
QMenuBar: Not sure how to handle accelerator 0x1010 (Home)

Result: The canvas does not receive any events.
(Mac OSX is basically a BSD machine, with some Apple oddities of
