Python plist and WITHOUT_NIS=1

When WITHOUT_NIS=1 is in src.conf, the system is built without nis, so
is python. But nis.so is listed in the python plist, this will result
in the following error when portmaster tries to create a backup
package for it. Is this solvable via dynamic plist generation?

===>>> Creating a backup package for old version python-2.4.3
tar: lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/nis.so: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
pkg_create: make_dist: tar command failed with code 256

Cheers,
