The patch did not work for me. I did get UNSUPPORTED when python
existed (because of no pexpect), but when I moved python and python3
out of the way so that the configure/build/test could not find them:
checking for python3... no
checking for python... no
configure: WARNING:

The printer tests still showed up as FAIL:
FAIL: nptl/test-cond-printers
FAIL: nptl/test-condattr-printers
FAIL: nptl/test-mutex-printers
FAIL: nptl/test-mutexattr-printers

I don't see anything in the patch where these tests are not run when
PYTHON is not found. Is something missing from the patch as posted?
Maybe a change to nptl/Makefile?
