So, clearsilver 0.10.5 doesn't auto-detect python 2.6.  I should really
fix the detection code so it doesn't need a list of major versions.

It does work if you configure from source with 
./configure --with-python=/usr/bin/python

I have some pre releases of 0.11 in the works, just waiting on some
final touches to some new code a coworker is working on, it has the
relevant extra bits to configure (or you can add the bits to
configure.in and re-run autogen.sh).  There's just a list of versions in
configure.in that it uses to find the include/lib paths.
