In other words you want to build two products with one buildout.
Python is a language your product depends on.  It does not need to be  
a part of your product as the C language and libc are not part of the  
Python.

As I mentioned in the previous post in this thread one can get the  
same development and production environments by properly packing clean  
python and their product(s).  The added advantage is that N products  
can use the same clean python instead of having it deployed N times as  
a part of their buildout.
