This seems to be a bug in distutils, triggered by the %-signs in your CFLAGS. The easiest way to work around this is to change the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS in your environment, just remove the options containing %-signs. Those seem to be related to optimization and I don't think those will affect the performance of pysqlite very much.

A more permanent fix is change /opt/python/lib/python2.4/distutils/spawn.py" line 122, insert "%s" as the first argument of the call to log.info. This might not be the only place that requires changes.

P.S. please file a bug at http://www.sf.net/projects/python to ensure that this will get fixed in a future release of  python.
