But the following patch fixes that.

Technically, this looks like it could be a python bug, in the python-config script. Either solution works for me, but I think the "right" solution is to fix the python-config program (which I have done for python-2.2.1-r2, which has not been committed yet.)
This can be closed. The new python should solve this problem.
