[Nix-dev] Remove Python 2.6 and 3.3

[Freddy Rietdijk]

This is about the old Python 2.6, `python26`. The default version in
Nixpkgs is Python 2.7. Python 2.6 has been broken for some time, and hasn't
been used in Nixpkgs for a long time either. Therefore, if you use Python
2.6, you will know, because you're doing so explicitly.
