Its a chicken and egg problem in that we have autobuilders which don't have python3 of the right version. Rather than build a special version of the tarball from a branch, I merged this patch set on the basis that anyone needing a python2 tarball could easily us the version from before the patches merged and that we would be moving to python3 soon everywhere.
