Marc generally takes care of making branches.

Peter was suggesting that if we *stopped* using RTLD_GLOBAL then it
might be possible to use plpython2 and plpython3 concurrently in one
backend.  After looking at the archives I'm not convinced that's
workable --- it sounds like not using RTLD_GLOBAL would have the effect
of breaking Python's extension scheme altogether.  But at any rate the
ball's in his court to make and test a concrete proposal if he wishes.

Yeah, I hope to get that committed today.  Any later than today will not
leave enough time for buildfarm testing before the wrap.
