Unless there's a recent development I have missed, renderd.py is 
outdated and has long since been replaced by the C version, and it is 
likely that you are using that.

mod_tile doesn't have to know about the scale factor; renderd does. You 
could either add the required code to renderd, or you could switch to 
using Tirex (you can continue using mod_tile, your Apache setup, your 
already rendered tiles - just replace renderd by Tirex) which supports 
setting the scale factor in the config file.
