The new upstream version is the solution to this problem, but we've been going back and forth over issues (fixing one, revealing another) in updating the package. I'll see if I can do it today, but I don't understand why this should be blocking python itself. It's not python that broke this package-- it was updating some of its other dependencies (htslib/samtools).
My understanding is that the new version of python 2.7 removed a module called "_PyFPE" and that C extensions referencing symbols from this module need to be rebuilt. This has been enforced by breaks in the python2.7 package. Your package is on said list.
So for the new python2.7 to migrate to testing the FTBFS in python-pysam needs to be fixed.
