That's very bizarre... we have 2.4.3 and have no problems. I'm sure it
has more to do with how your Python is installed on your system than
what version it is. What OS/distro are you using? Did you install
Python from a standard package/rpm or from source? Do you have multiple
versions of Python installed on the machine?
The scons script tries to deduce the correct Python directories by
querying the Python interpreter that's running scons itself, using what
I think are the standard, official methods, so I'd say that at best your
Python install is unusual (in which case we'd want to fix our scons
scripts to deal with it) and at worst maybe you need to reinstall Python.
Keep us posted.

I attempted to build M5 using Python 2.4.3 (the current stable
release), but have run into problems suggesting that this version is
not compatible with M5. First, the scons scripts auto-generated the
wrong directory for linking to libpython2.4.a. That I was able to
fix, but I also need to add dl, pthread and util to the libraries
linked. After those changes I was able to build M5 but it fails to
run correctly during the dynamic loading of Python modules. The build
tests fail with this message:
