Comment (by richard):

 Are you sure that linking to libpythonX.X.so is always the right thing to
 do?  Is that library always even available (perhaps python might be linked
 statically on some platforms?)

 Reading http://docs.python.org/2/extending/embedding.html#linking-
 requirements it sounds like linking to libpython isn't normally needed;
 might the problem here be a problem with the flags supplied to vim?
