Lp is currently 2.1.12. It did build Python 2.7. It runs in launchpad.dev. Its test pass too. Lp and the testrunner are Python 2.6.6

The bug is that confguration test:
        $PYTHON conftest.py
died. I can take that exact script and play it in my system pythons (attached). 2.7 gives a yes, 2.6 gives a no. pdb shows that
        pdothpath = distutils.sysconfig.get_config_var('CONFINCLUDEPY')
        if os.path.isfile(os.path.join(pdothpath, "Python.h")):
            res = "yes"
        else:
            res = "no"
returns no because /usr/include/python2.6/Python.h does not exist.

So I am more convinced that this is an issue with Natty's Python 2.6
