There are a few aspects of your patch for python2.6 that I don't understand. In particular, why are you modifying the rules to regenerate libtool, automake, and autoconf files? The only part of the patch that seems like it might be needed is changing the rm path to prevent the python files from making it into the dev package. Anyway, that change seems harmless.
I can't accept the patch as provided since it doesn't include build dependencies on autoconf and automake at all (let alone of the requested versions), and I also don't want to have the package regenerate autoconf and automake without a really good reason. I've partially taken the patch and will be closing the bug with my upload of 7.18.2-1. Please let me know if the fix is sufficient. If not, please feel free to reopen this bug with a full explanation of why the changes are needed in order to make this work with python 2.6.
