I removed the offending line, as it is actually not needed for anything. 
Please check if it fixes the bug.

Fixes one issue, adds another (this time it shows up after checking for python,
instead of after pkg-config

Grr! conf.env['PREFIX'] should return a string, not a list :|  And this doesn't
happen on darwin-ppc regression host :(

Does the following command print anything?

   python -c "import os; print repr(os.environ['PREFIX'])"

Created an attachment (id=349) [details]
test waf

Could you try this replacement waf, just to see what it prints?

------- Comment #7 From Gustavo J. A. M. Carneiro 2009-01-12 15:05:09 EDT -------

Ah, I suspect all this is due to not running "./waf configure".  "./waf" may
trigger an autoconfig, but there's a possible bug with that autoconfig...

------- Comment #8 From Rajib Bhattacharjea 2009-01-12 15:27:05 EDT -------

Yes, I am using just "waf", not waf configure.  waf configure works just fine
actually.
