Sorry; looks like my fault.

I updated /usr/lib/rpm/brp-python-bytecompile to better cope with the
python 2 vs python 3 split; this was in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=531117

>From my reading, what's happening is that I coded it with the

  $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib*/python*/

When at least one such file exists, I believe the shell expands the glob
and thus we iterate over the library subdirectories, byte-compiling
all .py files in them with the appropriate version of python.

When no such directory exists, the shell fails to expand it, and retains
it as the text string:
  your_build_root/usr/lib*/python*/
and thus one iteration of that loop happens, and we get the two error
messages.

So I believe this is harmless but messy.

Sorry for any confusion.
