distutils is now using pyconfig for finding the config information that
python was built with; previously, it used the bits under
%{_libdir}/python2.4/config which arguably should be in python-devel as
well.

So while I could hack around to make things build with just python
installed, I think that BR: python-devel is the more correct way to go.
Seem sane to everyone?

And apologies, I meant to include this in the second mail since I
noticed it with a couple of packages in Core (3 packages needed
modification for this), but it had slipped my mind by the time I sent
mail.
