That's almost certainly not true for a good number of the concerned ports
e.g. if python is just used to generate a file used in the build, or for a
build system used by a "vendored" dependency. It's not in the project's
interest that the python version used makes a difference.
I'm not proposing a mandatory feature, so ports where the python version
does make a difference could and should refrain from using it.
