french/aster ignores PYTHON_VERSION= 2.6 ?

[Anton Shterenlikht]

french/aster has in the Makefile:

.if ${ARCH} == "amd64"
# python 2.7 causes process runaway
PYTHON_VERSION= 2.6
.endif

I get the same on ia64, so I changed it to:

.if ${ARCH} == "amd64" || ${ARCH} == "ia64"
# python 2.7 causes process runaway
PYTHON_VERSION= 2.6
.endif

But still 2.7 is used:

# grep python ./work/aster-full-src-10.3.0/config.log 
  /usr/local/bin/python2.7 setup.pyo test 
# 

Why?

Thanks
Anton
