As stated multiple times, the initial port will be to python-2.6+ with
python-3 features turned on.  Then we'll see where we're at.

It's possible that the remaining porting work will be small at that
point and we can migrate easily.  It's also possible that it's still a
major undertaking to go from py-2.6 w/ python-3 features to py3.  But we
won't know until code starts being ported so there's no use trying to
guess what we need to do now.
