I don't think this is correct.
The purpose of the code you are removing here is to find out what the
compile-time python version is, and then hardcode that into the #!
line of the installed python scripts.
So if you compile with PYTHON=python2.4 or with PYTHON unset on a
system where `python' from the path is 2.4, you generate in
dist/install/ (a) python modules in .../site-packages/python2.4 and
(b) scripts starting #!/usr/bin/python2.4
If you don't do this then the script starts #!/usr/bin/python and if
by then python 2.5 is installed, it won't find the modules.
