cmake needs to be rebuilt. There is a line in
/usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPythonLibs.cmake

   FOREACH(_CURRENT_VERSION 2.6 2.5 2.4 2.3 2.2 2.1 2.0 1.6 1.5)

This line has to be patched to support 2.7. It is used to detect the
python include path.

Any python package that uses cmake will probably fail.
