I discovered several bugs in dh_python when reviewing all packages for
the transition. Especially, there are many issues with program packages
using distutils. It's a shame I didn't notice them before, but nobody
else reported these issues, some of which were trivial to notice.

The .py[co]'s of newly generated packages are now correctly removed on
upgrade, but the case of those files lying around will indeed have to be
dealt with, especially when it affects stable upgrades.
