Can you tweak your build.log to be in form of `emerge -v1` where used USE flags for built package are seen in the header? It's not immediately obvious of USE=python is active or not (I think it's not).

Here is a warning from context:

 * QA Notice: DISTUTILS_USE_SETUPTOOLS value is probably incorrect
 *   have:     DISTUTILS_USE_SETUPTOOLS=bdepend (or unset)
 *   expected: DISTUTILS_USE_SETUPTOOLS=no

Filed bug #800147 to clarify. I'm not sure the check is expected to handle optional depends.
