Description

There are several places where some Jython-specific hacks are used. For example, there are imports from com.python.core which is a third-party library.

They are untested and undocumented.

Right now Jython is stuck with 2.7
I think, we don't have to keep it: eventually Jython can patch it on their side, since all parts are pure-Python code.

Original issue on Jython's repo: jython/jython#217

I think we should leave this open for some time (1 month?) to let Jython's team to comment on this.
