Nice, thanks for the summary.
Can we adopt this as is?
Do we need the 3.4 and 3.5 fix or the 3.6 one is enough?

Should we set these in python-build-system? What about python booststrap?
I guess we use gnu-build-system there, so bootstrap packages might need to
set these explicitly?

Do we also have to do this, or should we settle with one optimization
level? Which one?
