python3 -m compileall generates pyc, python3 -O -m compileall pyo.  Functions in py_compile and compileall gained an optimize argument in 3.2.

You’ll have to be more specific.  Bytecode files can be created when building a bdist or on install from source.  Packaging commands do not depend on the calling Python’s -O option, they have their own options to let users specify if they want pyc files, pyo, neither or both.

Really?  The behaviors of compileall and packaging seems better to me.
