Something about openshift's packaging is preventing installation of MySQL-python, which we depend on.

This has been fixed in a local branch on my machine. Now running into places where Openshift changed their environment variables.

Setting up my own openshift so I can test on faster boxen. Will report back in a couple hours.

Now resolved. Openshift changed the name of the OPENSHIFT_INTERNAL_IP variable which confused some of our "is the instance working" tests.
