python3-all-dev seemed to do the trick, thanks a *LOT* Andrew !

However, waf configure spitting out:

python-config                                                                     : not found 

when doing:

$ python-config returns
Usage: /usr/bin/python-config --prefix|--exec-prefix|--includes|--libs|--cflags|--ldflags|--extension-suffix|--help|--configdir

seems to be a problem to me.

No time to fix random python2 -> python3 breakage
now though, sorry.

However the Samba python3 people might want to
think about improving the debug messages around
this.
