I actually have a few suggestions here:

1. The system build deps for Python 2 should be the same as those for
Python 3, so "yum-builddep python" should solve the problem of getting
dependencies to do your own build

2. You may also be interested in Slavek's proposal to add a Python 3.4
stack to EPEL: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Bkabrda/EPEL7_Python3
(Relevant discussions at [1] and [2])

3. Alternatively, Software Collections may be a better fit for your
use case: http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/SCL

As Alexander says though, we're getting a bit off topic for upstream
python-dev - this is more a topic for EPEL, CentOS or the Red Hat
customer portal.

Regards,
Nick.
