Strange failure on 'python setup.py build' after 10.4.10 update

My G5 at work has started spitting out this message when I
try to  
build a python package from source.  The previous week I
completed  
many builds with no problem.  I did similar builds on my
home system  
with no problem.

The major change at work was I finally installed the 10.4.10
update  
(and suddenly had to change my $PATH to get python 2.4
back!) and my  
home system is still at 10.4.9.

Is this a known issue & I'm behind the times or is this
new?

Thanks,
Tom

I haven't seen this before.  Where did you have to change
your path to  
to get python 2.4 back? AFAIK 10.4.x ships with Python 2.3,
any other  
version was installed manually and hence requires changes to
$PATH  
anyway.

Is MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET in your environment? If so, try
unsetting  
it before building extensions.
