Python 2.7 and OS SDK?

I'm using a python script in a script step of an Xcode 3.2 target. I need to use a feature from Python 2.7, so I installed that using port. It works fine in a newly-created test project.

My original project, however, failed to build because it uses a base SDK of 10.5, and python 2.7 threw an error:
  IOError: $MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET mismatch: now "10.5" but "10.6" during configure

This seems rather puzzling to me, since the script is run as a build step, not as part of the product.

The error comes from sysconfig.py, where it runs a block with this comment:

    # On MacOSX we need to check the setting of the environment variable
    # MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET: configure bases some choices on it so
    # it needs to be compatible.

I can see this being useful when building python, but not when just running it.

A workaround is to add
  MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.6
right before the python command. This seems unsafe to me, though.

Is there a more suitable workaround? If this is a python bug, it seems very deep-seated.

Thanks.
