What does your output looks?

# python2.7-config --includes

I have reported a bug at python@ about python2.6-config doesn't
include -L/usr/local/lib/pth. I image for -I/usr/local/include/pth
too.

Agreed, but too bad the gobject-introspection doesn't use
'python2.7-config --includes'. I will cook up a patch for
gobject-introspection to use 'python2.7-config --includes' this
evening.
