Not sure why you want to rebuild since we already provide the binaries.

We will use "python27" for this example.

You have define "scl" to be "python27" when you are building the 
"python27" packages.  Or you can build "python27-1-10.el6.src.rpm" which 
will provide python27-build-1-10.el6.x86_64.rpm.  The 
python27-build-1-10.el6.x86_64.rpm package provides 
/etc/rpm/macros.python27-config which defines "scl".
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
(x86_64)# more macros.python27-config
%scl python27 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Then you can install python27-build-1-10.el6.x86_64.rpm .  Note you will 
have to uninstall python27-build-1-10.el6.x86_64.rpm and install another 
[package]-build which will define "scl" for that package .

Additional dependencies are scl-utils-build .
