If you try to build textproc/asciidoc with Python 3.x, you'd immediately notice
this error:

> ===>  Building for asciidoc-8.6.10_1
> gmake[2]: Entering directory '.../work/asciidoc-8.6.10'
> Fixing CONF_DIR in asciidoc.py
> Fixing CONF_DIR in a2x.py

The code is still using 2.x syntax (print statement) and thus cannot be built
with new Python as is (without patching).  Feel free to craft a patch. :-)
