Comment(by tcwan@…):

 I've used python_select to specify python26 (macports).

 On my Leopard (2.5.x) environment, I have py25-pil, (but not py26-pil)
 installed. I use python25 on Leopard normally. if I select python26 as the
 default it can find PIL because it takes it from the 2.5 site-packages
 using the appended path.

 On Snow Leopard (2.6.x) environment, I have py26-pil (not py25-pil)
 installed. I don't plan to have python 2.5 on Snow Leopard (if possible).
 I suppose if I installed py25-pil it probably could work since it forces
 it to load from the 2.5 site-packages path.

 The lack of pil-25 doesn't affect the loading of PIL if it's executed from
 the command line, since python could find pil-26 from the installed
 location (/opt/local/Library...).
 It's only when scons invokes python and the script that it is not able to
 locate pil-26 on Snow Leopard.
