Unfortunately, for now, you can't compile views with Python logic in the
{{extend}} statement (as the logic cannot be evaluated until runtime), and
compiling is currently all or nothing. A while back I had submitted a patch
to allow compilation to proceed even with some views failing, but it was
never applied (I just submitted an issue revisiting the idea).
As an alternative, you can create two views, each extending a different
layout. To avoid duplicating the main content of each view, you can put
that into a third template file and simply include it in each view:
index1.html:
{{extend 'layout1.html'}}
{{include 'default/index.html'}}
index2.html:
{{extend 'layout2.html'}}
{{include 'default/index.html'}}
Then put the main template content in index.html. In the controler, set
response.view to either index1.html or index2.html.
