Debian says "Warning! you are running an untested version ofPython." on 2.3

Whenever I run python I get

"Warning! you are running an untested version of Python."

prepended to the start of any output on stdout.

This is with Debian and python 2.3 (running the debian 2.1 and 2.2 binaries
doesn't have this effect)

Does anyone have any idea how to stop this or have even seen it before?

What version of a) Debian and b) python are you running?

I don't have that problem here (I'm running testing/sarge)

$ python2.4 -c 'pass'
$ python2.3 -c 'pass'
$ python2.2 -c 'pass'
$ python2.1 -c 'pass'
$

$ dpkg -l python2.1 python2.2 python2.3 python2.4

Same here... Debian testing with Python2.3 no problem. Perhaps he's running
Debian unstable?

Same result here on unstable, no problem. And experimental has no python2.3
package.
However, I remember vaguely about something like this.
Perhaps the OP is running an old unstable version, never upgraded ?
