> It's painful to have to maintain downstream patches. Supporting this feature would make Python usable on more platforms.

Who volunteers to support it?  It's a PITA to maintain the configure script and setup.py, and adding options only makes it more painful.  This kind of niche features needs some dedicated maintainer so that other core developers don't have to bother with it.
