[Buildroot] Python package broken, Trying to fix, Need hints.

[Roman Bigler]

With the fix the build process continues.

However, it still gives some errors:
<snip>
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/roeme/minim/buildroot/latest/ 
buildroot/build_i586/Python-2.4.2'
Parser/pgen ./Grammar/Grammar ./Include/graminit.h ./Python/graminit.c
make[1]: Parser/pgen: Command not found
make[1]: [Include/graminit.h] Error 127 (ignored)
Parser/pgen ./Grammar/Grammar ./Include/graminit.h ./Python/graminit.c

<...some output omitted...>

libpython2.4.a(tokenizer.o): In function `tok_get':

<snap>

I'll try to find out what went wrong, if it's related buildroot, i'll
let the list know about my findings.

Thanks again for your help!
