Thanks for the patch. However, I think that the configure should find
correct python binary and set PYTHON variable (instead of PYTHONBIN)
in the Makefile (good example is BUILD_CC variable in Makefile.in).
And there are more references to the python binary in other makefiles
which should be fixed too.
