Interesting thread, thanks.  My gut feeling was that the kernel would have no
effect on python packages, but now I need to rethink that.

 I ran python-updater like Walt suggested, no help.
 Then I rebuilt dev-lang/python:2.7 still didn't help.
 
 python-2.7 was built against gentoo-sources-3.11.0 which is my current kernel.

My kernel-tinkering experience may have nothing to do with your python bug,
but I'll mention it anyway because I love the sound of my own key-clicks :)

The 0 at the end of 3.11.0 means that kernel has had very little testing
and may well contain many new bugs.  If you don't want to spend your time
bisecting and reporting kernel bugs you should probably wait at least until
that 0 increments to around 3 before using it.

Given the ubuntu bug report I'd suggest trying a kernel in the 3.10.* range
as an experiment.

In general, when I see emerge errors involving any python stuff, I run 
python-updater
as a knee-jerk reflex even before I start using my brain :)

It may not help, but it couldn't hurt...
