I tracked the file causing it to "${S}/buildtools/wafadmin/Tools/python.py" and the function to "check_python_headers", which uses `python_LDFLAGS` variable filled from distutils. This variable is overridable via ENV var of the same name.

Thus my quick fix was:
```
--- a/samba-4.2.9.ebuild
+++ b/samba-4.2.9.ebuild

-       CPPFLAGS="-I${SYSROOT}/usr/include/et ${CPPFLAGS}" \
+       CPPFLAGS="-I${SYSROOT}/usr/include/et ${CPPFLAGS}" python_LDFLAGS= \
                waf-utils_src_configure ${myconf[@]}
 }
```

I had same problem with python compiled by gcc and then samba by clang, both with different LDFLAGS. Recompiling python with clang problem disappeared.
