No. The scripts do not contain the parts for building the python plugins. In 
order to get that working, you would first have to download and/or install 
some python binary. Also, the SWIG version has to contain python support. 
Finally, the gnucash python parts need to be built against the given python.

I don't know of that. It cannot be too complicated, but we haven't heard of 
anyone who did that.
