In the absence of Guido here, I'll channel him ;-)  "The problem" with oddball platforms has been that some require major changes in many parts of the interpreter, and then all the added cruft complicates life for every maintainer, while few people benefit and the oddball platform typically has only one maintainer who vanishes for long stretches.

Guido would not object to this small, simple, well-motivated and isolated patch.  At least he wouldn't object on the basis of "it's an unsupported platform".

I don't object either ;-)
