I didn't see Jon's comment earlier.  Sorry to have given conflicting advice.  I'd not considered it a parsing oddity but I think he's correct.

There is a flip side however and that is that this oddity probably works in versions older than v2.6 which is as far back as future support exists.

I can't imagine anyone is using < 2.6 but I have no idea what PYTHON=python2 actually implies.  The other option is to switch to sys.write.stdout
which has always had more consistent semantics.
