One more thing:  new in python 2.3 is a "logging" module that appears
to be seriously badass.

http://python.org/doc/2.3.3/lib/module-logging.html      DOCS
http://python.org/doc/2.3.3/lib/node301.html             EXAMPLE

If you're considering seriously overhauling the logging, it might be
smart to move to this.  I realize you want to stay python 2.2
compatible for now (because FC1 doesn't include 2.3, for example) so
that would mean including the module in yum, at least temporarily.  I
also do not know how well it works with 2.2, but I could check it out.
