I don't remember seeing any warning about it during the upgrade. That
may have helped people (ones that read the warnings, at least) figure
out what was going on. I think a warning from /usr/bin/python may have
helped as well, but I do suppose might be a bit extreme.

FWIW, I found those news posts and the Python wiki page pretty quickly
after I realized my scripts weren't working anymore.
