It almost certainly is, although the bug seems to say that parallelization wouldn't work for python3.6 either, and the current official ebuild seems to enable it (or least try to, I don't know if it would because it goes through makeopts_jobs which could be buggy too). By the way, if you're going to use thread pools in your python code, why import them via _multiprocessing_ ?? There is an official and well documented threading package? And of course the code at the link in the bug [1] is horrible, complete misuse of OOP so I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from it - other than: the programmer is not very used to python.
