Well, given that OOos configure calls AM_PATH_PYTHON([2.2]) and this
version splits for . and is called minver (minimal version number
requested) I strongly would assume $2 is 2.2 :)

Indeed:

    dnl A version check is needed.
    if test -n "$PYTHON"; then
      # If the user set $PYTHON, use it and don't search something else.
      AC_MSG_CHECKING([whether $PYTHON version >= $1])
      AM_PYTHON_CHECK_VERSION([$PYTHON], [$1],
                              [AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)],
                              [AC_MSG_ERROR(too old)])
      am_display_PYTHON=$PYTHON

Tried on morales:

$ python -c "import sys, string
# split strings by '.' and convert to numeric.  Append some zeros
# because we need at least 4 digits for the hex conversion.
minver = map(int, string.split('2.2', '.')) + [0, 0, 0]
minverhex = 0
for i in xrange(0, 4): minverhex = (minverhex << 8) + minver[i]
sys.exit(sys.hexversion < minverhex)"
(sid)rene@morales:~$ echo $?
0

buildd issue, maybe? Cc'ing neuro (and debian-mips). In case it's kernel related: Linux morales 2.6.18-6-r5k-cobalt #1 Mon Jun 9 05:55:54 UTC 2008 mips GNU/Linu
