None of the output provides any clue to me but I do know that Python 3.7 has some issues with a lot of versions of openssl that is based on a disagreement between devs in both projects. This was a problem for me when trying to build python 3.7 on my Kubuntu 14.04 system. I've seen this issue reported across all targets for Python including Freebsd so I expect it's likely to also happen for NetBSD.

So ... I just got this identical failure on NetBSD 8.1 on a shiny new Intel NUC box. So that removes the excuse of old unsupported hardware, and leaves us with the conclusion that PL/Python is flat out broken on recent NetBSD.
This is with today's HEAD of our code and the python37-3.7.4/amd64 package from NetBSD 8.1.
BTW, the only somewhat-modern NetBSD machine in our buildfarm is coypu, which is running NetBSD/macppc 8.0 ... but what it is testing PL/Python against is python 2.7.15, so the fact that it doesn't fail can probably be explained as a python 2 vs python 3 thing.
