On FreeBSD, Python does not ship as part of the base system but is available
via the ports system, which install the binary in /usr/local/bin.

Sign-off?
Sorry, I was under the impression somebody who knew what the hell they were
doing would be the one adding a Sign-off By to the commit :)

I would have expected that the patch would look more like this:

What am I missing?
No, that looks right, I didn't notice the specialized section towards the

Third time's the charm
