Bug description:
  The saucy gdb appears to be linked against libpython3.3.

  This results in a conflict when trying to debug python2.7 programs,
  which use the python2.7-dbg.py scripts from python2.7-dbg.  This makes
  debugging Python programs difficult.

  
    File "/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/python2.7-gdb.py", line 54
      Py_TPFLAGS_HEAPTYPE = (1L << 9)
                              ^
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax
    File "/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/python2.7-gdb.py", line 54
      Py_TPFLAGS_HEAPTYPE = (1L << 9)

  There are also invalid print statements that show up as well.

  If these are updated, then the file parses, but `py-bt` fails with:

  Error occurred in Python command: global name 'long' is not defined

  Updating all of the long() references to int() doesn't work:

  Error occurred in Python command: 'gdb.Value' object cannot be
  interpreted as an integer
