New submission from Vinson Lee:
Is there a minimum Python requirement to build Python?
Python 3.5 does not build with Python 2.6. Python 3.4, Python 3.3, and Python
2.7 build with Python 2.6 so this is recent change in build requirements.
For example, this build failure occurs on CentOS 6.

3.0), that appears to put an effective minimum version requirement of 2.7 to
build 3.5. Whether that was the intent is unclear (they were changing a lot of
places from set([a, b, c])
