There's a project underway in Fedora 12 to finally resolve the issues
with Red Hat including #!/usr/bin/env python in our python executables:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/SystemPythonExecutablesUseSystemPython

There's also a Fedora bug opened on this, and comments in there state
that this is a big priority for RHEL6:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=518994

For RHEL5, we've been instructed by Product Management to open bugs on
a package-by-package basis to address the problem.

In this case, yum-fastestmirror in RHEL5 has at least one instance of a
python script containing #!/usr/bin/env python.  


/usr/lib/yum-plugins/fastestmirror.py in yum-fastestmirror-1.1.16-13.el5

# head -1 /usr/lib/yum-plugins/fastestmirror.py
#!/usr/bin/env python

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2009-11-06 19:05:40 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in
the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like
this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your
support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?".

Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2010-08-09 19:15:35 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the
current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this
request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support
representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant,
in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
