(In reply to Charlie Li from comment #18)
Ok.  Your (python team) call, of course.  The patch is fairly trivial and
worthwhile, so it could help people.

I know there are a lot of python2 users still out there (despite the upstre=
am
status).  I'm not saying that's good or bad, just that "it is".  I confess,=
 I
still use it for scripts that haven't been ported or have not been gotten m=
uch
testing under py3 yet.  I appreciate that the ports team allowed py27 to st=
ill
exist (thankfully, it hasn't been a huge burden, I think). That friendly
treatment been very useful to end users in my circle.  It can be frustratin=
g to
get hit with aggressive deprecation action when there are old (and reliable)
systems in production.

I did test that openssl32 works fine with the python27 port.  Specifically I
hard coded the proper ssl version in setup.py, built python27 based on that=
 and
did some basic hashlib testing successfully - so that's good news.

Anyway... hopefully the patch will help some people who can apply it locall=
y.
