Comment (by felipou@…):

 I'm interested in this too.

 I'm not very experienced with creating ports (created just one so far),
 but it seems like there could be some complications to implementing this.

 Basically it would be a matter of creating a python3 group (basically just
 duplicate the python_select port:
 https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/sysutils/python_select?order=name)
 and setting this group at the python3 ports (like
 https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/lang/python33/Portfile).

 The thing is, I suspected it isn't possible to set multiple select groups
 for a single port, and python3 ports already set the python select group.

 If this isn't so (that is, macports already supports multiple select
 groups), this seems like a fairly easy thing to do.

 Otherwise, we would need to implement this in macports first. Then I won't
 be able to help, I have never programmed in Tcl before.

 Can someone more experienced with macports enlighten us about this issue?
