Comment 1 for bug 305231

I'm assuming you meant universal-applets-extras here.

I assume that when "python" is called in a Makefile, the shell scans the user's $PATH and uses the first instance.
Is there any advantage of using /usr/bin/env over this? (I know about using it in shell scripts, but not in Makefiles)

Whichever we use, it should be consistent in both extras and core.
