[Bug 1108983] Re: waf assumes that python2.X-config is a python script

[Robie Basak]

Raring (and Debian experimental) now use a shell script for
python2.7-config instead of the original upstream Python script. We
should call python2.7-config as an executable directly instead of
assuming that it is a Python script.

Both talloc and tdb are affected by the same issue and can be fixed with
the same patch which just calls python2.7-config directly instead of via
Python. It turns out that the fix was already committed upstream by
Jelmer, so we can drop it when the fix filters through.

Debdiffs for talloc and tdb attached above.
