(I'm not jperkin so I am just commenting.)

Do you believe that python needs libs provided by gettext in general,
and we're just getting away with not bl3 because most base systems
provide them (and we don't manage to hide base libs by bl3)?

Or do you have a different theory.


Overall, my quick reaction is that if there is a difference like this
between 310 and 312, it's either a bug or should have a comment (e.g.,
if it is correct because of an upstream change).
