If i remember correctly, if the command starts with "python -tt" then we
could be sure it was a command defined by us and we replaced that with
os::python(). The last was for sure invoking a Python 2, while the bare
python command could possibly invoke a Python 3. This was when we still did
not support Python 3 and wanted to avoid substituting a user command
with our invocation. All of this is now obsolete, I think.
