the main point of the bundled CPython is to provide a (read-only) 
runtime for PyUNO extensions; it's not a goal for it to be usable as a 
general purpose Python runtime.

if you want any additional modules, you have to bundle them into your 
extension.

but since i don't develop extensions, i have no idea how to best do that...
