That's not a valid comparison. ctypes is a module formerly external and
now in the python core.
That fix was about that it's only built for python2.4 now, which the
tools fail to understand.

A better comparison would be python-subversion (#446636) but afaik svn
does not use the python interpreter.

It's a decision to just support the default python and I won't change
that (at least not in the near future).

If you really want, you can file a wishlist bug, but it quickly will be
+wontfix.
