Yes, the idea was to keep the number of changes to a minimum and to
have the Python3 version work with Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.x.

Antoine worked on that, AFAIR.

The Python2 version of pybench needs to work with more than just
Python 2.6 and 2.7 to be able to compare performance of the various
releases back to version 2.3.
