You're right.

>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
['', '/usr/lib/python25.zip', '/usr/lib/python2.5',
'/usr/lib/python2.5/plat-lin
ux2', '/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload',
'/usr/local
/lib/python2.5/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages',
'/usr/lib/pyt
hon2.5/site-packages/Numeric', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/PIL',
'/usr/lib
/python2.5/site-packages/gst-0.10', '/var/lib/python-support/python2.5',
'/var/l
ib/python-support/python2.5/gtk-2.0']

As a result, Orca and GTK are already included, exactly as you indicate.
