No major objections on my part, I just consider my patch simpler. This
is a module, not an extension, so the build result is identical -- which
is why dh_pysupport grabs only one version. An elaborate construction to
run the tests using the build from the corresponding Python version
appears overly complex to me.

Again, this is just a comment. I'm fine either way as long as it fixes
the bug.
