Actual the plan is to rewrite the help generator in C and get rid of
build-time python dependency entirely. :)

Oh it's totally awkward and I need to fix it.

I keep getting distracted by things like rewriting ccwrap for musl,  
kernel releases I need to upgrade aboriginal with, the endless stream  
of new commands people keep sending me for pending, the linux-kernel  
Documentation stuff I should be doing...

And of course being most of a week behind on my email. :)
