Can lang/tauthon used instead of lang/python27?
It's a fork of python27 and maintained (slowly) like [1].

I don't use python nor tauthon directly, though.
I dislike languages killing backward compatibility... :-(

I love C as even recent llvm/clang has an ability to compile K&R
codes, if proper options are set. This is how ALL computer languages
SHALL BE.
