Still fails. I've tried various python2.6 directories, and nothing seems to work. I *have* managed to get it to compile correctly, however, by removing the /usr/bin/python binary (which was a duplicate of the python2.4 binary) and symlinking the binary for 2.6 in its place. The thrift compilation then registered and built against 2.6. Afterwards I re-linked to 2.4 so yum would continue to work without issue.
Maybe this should be raised as a bug?
