This is interesting. I remember that there was quite a bit of work being
done on Python 3 by the matplotlib developers at Sage Days 29 last
summer. I also notice in the commit log of matplotlib on github there is
evidence of recent Python 3 -related activity.

Does Pynac really not support Python 2.7? It looks like the citation for
the fact that it supports up to Python 2.6 is just that the most recent
version of Python mentioned in its SPKG's changelog is 2.6.

On the other hand, Pynac is probably bound closely enough to Sage that
we can just assume it supports whatever version we are shipping, because
if not then doctests should start failing...
