--------------

CPython versions 2.7.6 and 3.3.4 can be built with DTrace suport. Patches adding support
for DTrace have been taken from `this page <http://www.jcea.es/artic/solitaire.htm/python_dtrace.htm>`_
by Jesús Cea.

Building Python with DTrace support::

pythonz install --configure="--with-dtrace" 2.7.6
