It would be good to get that removed upstream too. Until that happens,
please remove it in debian/rules so that the Debian package never
builds against the embedded version.

I assume you regularly update to a new copy of scintilla?

Please check if there is a bug about this and file one if not.

The upstream build system should be fixed to not link against stuff
that isn't used. Sometimes this is a bug in other packages, other
times all the binaries are linked against all libraries needed by the
source package instead of just the libraries used by each binary.

You'd have to ask Debian python folks, I'm not sure about that. It
might related to this message:
fakeroot debian/rules binary
pyversions: missing XS-Python-Version in control file, fall back to
debian/pyversions
pyversions: missing debian/pyversions file, fall back to supported versions
