I confirmed locally that 3.2.6 still works with PL/Python.  I expect 
that Python 3.1 also still works, except that I can't build it at the 
moment.  Python 3.0.* was sort of a dud, so it's not really interesting 
to consider.

Partially because of the need to keep supporting Python 2, there hasn't 
been any work done in PL/Python to make use of any newer APIs, so the 
Python 3 minimum version is frozen in time at the moment.
