Georg Lingl has offered his xturtle for the standard library. Barring
showstopping problems with dependencies or code qualitiy I think this is
a good thing to add to 3.0 as a replacement for turtle, and to add to
2.6 while keeping the old turtle module.

I don't see a principle problem replacing turtle with xturtle, assuming
its compatible.
