As I see it python24 is good enough now. I've tried all
the more complex things like qt and gnome bindings, and
haven't seen problems.

>> PYTHON_VERSION_DEFAULT?=	24

OK, please do so.

> signal related problems IIRC

Some selftests still develop problems, but this appears
to be due some subtle problems in signal delivery to
threads where NetBSD behaves differently. Nothing to
worry in real applications.
There is a failure related to forkpty() in the latest version
too, but this also isn't something to worry about imo.
