The Python library pycoin (http://github.com/richardkiss/pycoin), originally written and maintained by Richard Kiss, is a Python-based library that supports manipulation of bitcoin keys and transactions, even supporting the scripting language enough to properly deal with non-standard transactions. As of June, 2014, the latest released version is 0.42, and all examples here are based on that version; be warned that it is still under active development, so later versions may have differences in API or command-line tools.
The pycoin library supports both Python 2 (2.7.x) and Python 3 (after 3.3), and comes with some handy command-line utilities, ku and tx.
To install:
$ python3 -m venv /tmp/pycoin

KU and TX
=========
KU
--
The command-line utility ```ku``` ("key utility") is Swiss Army knife for manipulating keys. It supports BIP32 keys, WIF, and address (bitcoin and alt coins). Here are some examples.
Create a BIP32 Key using the default entropy sources of GPG and /dev/random:

--
The command-line utility ```tx``` will display transactions in human-readable form, fetch base transactions from pycoin's transaction cache or from web services (blockchain.info, blockr.io, biteasy.com are currently supported), merge transactions, add or delete inputs or outputs, and sign transactions.
Examples:
View the famous "pizza" transaction [PIZZA]:

** can't validate transaction as source transactions missing
The final line appears because to validate the transactions' signatures, you technically need to the source transactions. So let's add ```-a``` to augment the transactions with source information.

We see a transaction that sends most of the 50 BTC to a new address. The signature is not correct though. If we had the private key, we could sign it like this:
$ tx tx.bin -f wifs.gpg -o signed_tx.bin
You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "Richard Kiss <him@richardkiss.com>"
2048-bit ELG-E key, ID 681E71C8, created 1999-11-08 (main key ID DBD8AB6A)

signing...

all incoming transaction values validated
Yep, if the file passed to -f ends with ```.gpg```, then ```gpg -d``` is automatically invoked, and you can type your GPG passphrase. So ```tx``` plus ```gpg``` is actually a pretty reasonably secure solution! And if you keep your WIF.gpg file on an airgapped machine, this solves the problem of cold storage!
$ shasum tx.bin signed_tx.bin
3ba7db8417e0fe1aeb7b4a1cbf13880bf84f38bc tx.bin
3ba7db8417e0fe1aeb7b4a1cbf13880bf84f38bc signed_tx.bin
Unfortunately for me, this file didn't include the WIF to the outgoing transaction, so the transaction remains unsigned.
You can also use ```-i``` to fetch all unspents (via the web) for a given bitcoin address and split it up.

Wow! It worked! (It wrote the output as hex because of the ".hex" suffix.)
So why not just broadcast this transaction and collect our winnings? Well, the coins have already been spent. Oh well.
Note that pycoin uses a deterministic algorithm to create the signatures, so if you try this at home, you will get the exact same transaction with the exact same 0995cf6f55e1cf22f7c31f5ad52d111e897b0b9b7e37a1bb755a470324b4a2c4 hash.
