Interestingly enough, that's resolved the issue with _ctypes.so (still using
Xcode 11.3.1, 10.15 SDK). I now only get the following two errors now:

---

=> Checking file-check results for python38-3.8.2nb1
ERROR: ************************************************************
ERROR: The following files are in the PLIST but not in /usr/obj/pkg/lang/python38/work/.destdir/usr/pkg:

Output log file is at:
http://dl.rsx11.net/misc/python38-output-02.log

I see these lines:
---

The necessary bits to build these optional modules were not found:
_gdbm                 _hashlib              _ssl
ossaudiodev           spwd
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name.
...
Could not build the ssl module!
Python requires an OpenSSL 1.0.2 or 1.1 compatible libssl with X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host().
LibreSSL 2.6.4 and earlier do not provide the necessary APIs, https://github.com/libressl-portable/portable/issues/381

I have security/openssl (openssl-1.1.1e) installed.

Yes, that exists.
