I'm very familiar with it.
Now we get to Arch is insane.
They've put developers in a difficult spot. They have to choose between /usr/bin/python2 and works on Arch and some newer releases and /usr/bin/python and works everywhere except Arch.
The only suggestion I can make is that it's generally not that hard for new code to make it work for both python2.7 and python3.3. Then there's no need to care.
