So looking at it, it appears to me that cpython is python and that
python2.7 version 2.7.2-5 already in armhf and working by the looks of
it, is essentially the same thing.

There are very minor differences between 2.7.2-5 and the current 2.7
branch in hg.  I did a diff.  Practically the same code with some
documentation cleanup.

So what's the thing that you think needs doing?

ii  libpython2.7                      2.7.2-5                          Shared Python runtime library (version 2.7)
ii  python2.7                         2.7.2-5                          An interactive high-level object-oriented language (version 2.7)
ii  python2.7-dbg                     2.7.2-5                          Debug Build of the Python Interpreter (version 2.7)
ii  python2.7-dev                     2.7.2-5                          Header files and a static library for Python (v2.7)
ii  python2.7-minimal                 2.7.2-5                          A minimal subset of the Python language (version 2.7)

# python2.7 --version
Python 2.7.2+
# dpkg --print-architecture
armhf

Seems OK to me.

You might even have a very easy job left:

# dpkg -l tahoe-lafs
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name                                                          Version                                                       Description
+++-=============================================================-=============================================================-==========================================================================================================================================
ii  tahoe-lafs                                                    1.8.2-3                                                       Secure distributed filesystem

No idea how to test it, but it's already built and installable on armhf.
