FreeBSD has at least 4 active branches of Python, I gather
(different "flavors" of one meta-port, lang/python, see
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/flavors-auto-python.html)).
They
are sufficiently different (at least Python 2.7  and Python 3.7 are sufficiently
different to require different patches).

So there is more "software bureaucracy" here than just applying one patch.
And https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232792
has just one patch attached.
I am not sure how to create patches for flavored ports.
