Thanks for the reply,

Haven't got around to testing X yet, but on 7.2-STABLE it works fine, so 
I'm not too worried about that. It's the python and pth errors that are 
killing me.

  /usr/local/include/python2.6/Python.h  is there, seems correctly 
installed.  Even installing with portmaster and plain old make install 
it _still_ hits those errors of not finding the headers.
checking for /usr/local/bin/python2.6 version... 2.6

As well as /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpth
