This can compile and run with python 2 and 3. But our USES=scons framework does not know how to instruct scons to run with which python version. See https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=241463 for a attempt to flavor scons for python 2 and python 3. Maintainer of the port is rather silent. Does not accept nor reject the proposed solution.
