to get the same effect, you'd have to change python-default's version in
Lenny (which might not be a sane idea). It then would work only for
packages that provide symlinks for Python versions you're interested in,
though.

it's due to pycompile/pyclean scripts
to use Wheezy's dh_python2 based packages in Lenny, you'd have to add
dh_python2's stuff (including slightly modified pycompile and
debpython.version) to Lenny's python-defaults and rebuild packages with
public modules
