Further testing indicates that the problem is environment, but not due
to anything Webmin is/isn't doing.

Writing an extremely simplified script using Inline::Python and a
couple of simple Python functions within the Perl script itself proved
to work as expected both within and without Webmin.

The problem arises when including external Python libs in Perl
scripts. I'm guessing that Inline::Python has to call the Python
interpreter at some point. Maybe when this happens, the environment is
not setup correctly for Python to locate the required libs.

So sorry for the false alarm.

I'll follow up with the fix if I find it since someone else may want
to use Inline in their Webmin modules at some point.

Kind Regards,
Chris
