Subversion definitely fails to compile it's python bindings with python-3 as 
/usr/bin/python, I tested that earlier.

Glib2 fails in it's gio tests if /usr/bin/python is python3, that can
be worked around by neutering the gio/tests/Makefile or by removing
the /usr/bin/python => python3 symlink

With a lot of work it's possible to compile and install libxml2's
python bindings into python3 but the effort was all in vain, they don't
work as they use python 2 isms

The Thunderbird and Firefox configure scripts explicitly check
that /usr/bin/python is python2.

The only thing that I know of that uses python3 is pycairo, and even
with that they produce a py2cairo that works with python2.
