Patch to the ebuild to rectify the issue.

dev-python/restkit requires Python 2.5 or later, however python:2.4 is still in the portage tree and compilation will be enabled if USE_PYTHON contains 2.4.

Error message:

>>> Compiling source in /home/portage/portage/dev-python/restkit-3.0.2/work/restkit-3.0.2 ...
 * Building of dev-python/restkit-3.0.2 with CPython 2.4...
python2.4 setup.py build -b build-2.4
Restkit requires Python 2.5 or later.

Solution would be to restrict that Python ABI.
