Nowadays, it became trivial to maintain downstream patches. It is easy to fork 
the Python Git repository and put your patches on top of it. Here it's only a 
matter of doing the maintenance upstream or not.

Wait. I would prefer to not have a buildbot worker unless there is a volunteer 
to fix all s390 specific issues. Otherwise, setting a buildbot worker will not 
solve any problem. I'm talking about build failures, test failures and issues 
on the worker directly.
