I applied the OpenSUSE patch to the current cpython tip (3.4a0), rebuilt, then reinstalled.  I verified that sys.path contains directories which contain "lib64".  I can import the time module now, which failed before applying the patch.

The patch didn't apply perfectly (two chunks were slightly offset), so I generated a new patch, which is attached.

It's been awhile since I did anything with bug reports.  I tweaked a few fields.  Let me know if I muffed anything.
