Indeed, modules in /usr/lib/site-python should be made to use the default python version. This should be possible by rebuilding the .py[co] files that are not in /usr/lib/python2.X in the python package, instead of the python2.X package. However, It would be mad to make such a deep change in our python packages before the sarge release. -- .''`.
