AFAIK the process of filing and fixing bugs to be able to build with python 2.6 is already happening.

Since I didn't receive an answer on my question I summarize what I found. Python 2.6 will definitely not become the standard Python for Squeeze. It is also very unlikely that it will enter unstable soon as far as I understood due the way 2.6 handles site packages and the resulting packaging issues. Someone asked for a list of open issues so people can jump in and try to help to solve the issues so 2.6 can at least be in Squeeze, but apparently this list does not exist. Python 2.6 is available in experimental, but not very useful so far since most of the bindings are not built for 2.6.

Given that Bastian's post is the first time I've seen the question
posed straight away for the -devel public, can you please summarize an
answer for us?
It would also provide a clear reference material for people that might
wonder about the same in the (near) future.
TIA,
Cheers.
