The problem is we need to bump the Python version in BLFS or there will
be too much things not to work.  Being "clever" at one specific case
won't be really helpful.

Again and again and again that's why we say "Development versions of
BLFS may not build or run some packages properly if LFS or dependencies
have been updated since the most recent stable versions of the books."
for every BLFS package.
