This is stock FC1. "yum list python" says:

Looking in Installed Packages:
Name Arch Version
Repo
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
python i386 2.2.3-7
db

You are lucky that the buildfarm setup lets me answer the other question
so easily ;-)

The last REL7_4_STABLE build the machine did had this:

ccache gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -g -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wmissing-declarations -fpic -shared -Wl,-soname,libplpython.so.0
plpython.o -L../../../src/port -L/usr/lib/python2.2/config -ldl
-lpthread -lutil -lm -lpython2.2 -o libplpython.so.0.0

So it looks like this is what's missing: -L/usr/lib/python2.2/config ...
I see that indeed there is libpython2.2.a in that location.
