How, using pybitcointools (or Python), does one validate these DER sigs (given we know both privkeys)?
Throw away your knowledge of privkeys.
Validating ecdsa signature does not require privkeys.

dersigs in your transaction (or may be is it my transaction?
) are

Strictly speaking, BC Core also treats the follow-up byte ("
sighash
") as part-and-parcel with the actual DER signature, even though it's not included as part of the DER encoding. In this case, both transactions are SIGHASH_ALL (0x01).
