Using 2.6 in general as a Python *version* is fine (2.4, 2.5, and 2.6 should all work); I don't really know where that /usr/local/bin/python2.6 on your system comes from though; using it might solve the issue, it might not. To remove any trace of doubt, I always just use my own Python that I compile myself. It's very easy, at least if you have XCode installed.
