 Status: Pending => Rejected

I don't think so -- if you do the following from a
freshly-unpacked tarball:

  $ configure --with-python="/path/to/python" --prefix="/tmp/z296"
  ...
  $ make && make install
  ...
  $ cd /tmp/z296
  $ grep '^#!' bin/*.py 

none of the installed scripts have '/usr/local/bin/python' in them.  Neither do the scripts in instances generated from the
installed location.

Trying to work "in-place" from a release tarball is not going to use the configured python, as we only rewrite the shebang of the
*installed* scripts.

Howdy,

The argument to --with-python is being ignored and replaced with "/usr/local/bin/python" in Zope 2.9.6.  All of the build process says it is using another python, and it appears to be executing that python during installation, but tries to run this binary later.
