Hi, Tom.

The pymacs.el file was likely copied verbatim, out of pymacs.el.in from
the Pymacs distribution.  The ".in" suffix is a hint that the file needs
processing before "becoming" the usable file.  The problem may be there!

There is a Makefile in the distribution that takes care of these things,
and the installation documentation tries to stress that one should
either run "make" or at least do the equivalent by other means.

I would surely like that python-mode use Pymacs in a more solid way, and
just not try to "patch it" in.  Don't hesitate to use me, if I can
help.  If you do not thrown bug trackers at me, I'm quite speakable! :-)
