postflight problems installing 2.5 on Tiger

Hey everyone.  I'm having a problem getting the 2.5 installer to run
on Tiger.  The installation almost completes but then dies during the
postflight script with the message:

Dec 11 10:35:21 gandhi : run postflight script for Xcode Tools
Dec 11 10:35:21 gandhi : run postflight script for GCC 3.3
Dec 11 10:35:21 gandhi : run postflight script for Developer Tools Software
Dec 11 10:35:22 gandhi : postflight[22895]: env: python: No such file
or directory
Dec 11 10:35:22 gandhi : postflight[22895]:
Dec 11 10:35:22 gandhi : Install failed: The following install step
failed: run postflight script for Developer Tools Software

I had a look at the postflight in
Packages/Packages/DeveloperTools.pkg/Contents/Resources/postflight and
see that the offending line is right at the top

#!/usr/bin/env python

However, I do have a working python.  If I do "which python" it
returns "/usr/local/bin/python" which is python 2.5 from the MacPython
framework.  Also, I can run a simple test script test.py which
contains

#!/usr/bin/env python
print "Testing..."

both as myself and with sudo and don't get that error.

Anyone have any idea what's going on or how to correct it?  I can't
even start to hack the postflight scripts to see what they're doing as
the whle file system is read only.  Thanks!

Michelangelo
