Previously it was missing a runtime dependency on setuptools:
[kier@saelli:~/checkouts/nixpkgs]$ $(nix-build -A python27Packages.pylint --no-out-link)/bin/pylint
Traceback (most recent call last):

With this change, the same command now correctly prints pylint's help text.
This only applies to Python 2.
