R. David Murray added the comment: It's probably not a bad thing to fix this, but you should be able to avoid the problem by using 'make touch' before building. It should not be necessary to have a running python to build python; all the build artifacts are checked in. Specifically, the release tarballs should build without an existing python, and if they don't, that's a release packaging problem.
