Comment:
I'm pretty sure this applies to all extension modules that do anything
with strings. Variants aren't a good fit for this problem because having a
particular variant selected in the python27 port doesn't force that
variant to be selected in its dependents, nor vice versa. Making
UCS4-flavoured subports of python27 and all ports that install extension
modules would be a lot more trouble than it's worth IMO. I wouldn't go so
far as to remove the variant from python27 entirely as some have
suggested, but putting a big warning on it makes sense.
