There is no such thing as a non default Python. If you want to have
Python 3.4 for all your Python stuff, then you have to define it yourself.


Also, flavors only build py27 and py36 flavors anyway. (Unless you have
BUILD_ALL_PYTHON_FLAVORS defined, in which case it will build every
version available.)
