	    [Python] Merged in the szager-python-builtin branch, adding the -builtin feature
	    for python.  The -builtin option may provide a significant performance gain
	    in python wrappers.  For full details and limitations, refer to Doc/Manual/Python.html.
	    A small test suite designed to demonstrate the performance gain is in
	    Examples/python/performance.

            Add in missing wrappers for friend functions for some target languages, mostly
            the non-scripting languages like Java and C#.
