I'm guessing that people won't be so bitter about dependencies in the 
Parameter lib because it is new this release. Wasn't the 
indirect_traits issue so problematic because it was introduced into 
several well-established libraries that didn't have dependencies on 
Python headers?

I'm actually building the RC2 archives right now, so I'd prefer to 
leave this change post-1.33.0.
