New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com>:

"make altinstall" installs "2to3", "pydoc3" and "idle3" without version 
specific names.

This was at least a deliberate decision in the case of 2to3, but there doesn't 
appear to be any reason not to use a properly qualified version suffix on the 
pydoc and idle executables.
