I forgot about 2 other types of changes:
- Shebangs in installed scripts should be correct. If build system installs scripts
  with too generic shebangs (e.g. '#!/usr/bin/python'), then you can use
  python_convert_shebangs() to convert shebangs.

  Example:
    src_install() {
        ...

        python_convert_shebangs -r 2 "${D}usr/bin"
    }

  (Please note that wrapper scripts generated by python_generate_wrapper_scripts() work
  with all versions of Python from 2.4 to 3.2, so shebangs in these scripts do not need
  any changes.)

- Some deprecated functions (python_version(), distutils_python_version()) and variables
  (${python}, ${PYVER} etc.) should not be used.

Documentation [1] has been updated.

I will start filing bugs maybe in this week.
