Perhaps a final alternative is simply continuing the 2.7 series with a stale compiler, as a kind of carrot on a stick to encourage users to upgrade?
More likely, what would happen is that there'd be an alternate distribution of Python 2.7 (eg ActiveState), which would be language-compatible with python.org 2.7, but built with a different compiler, and therefore unable to use extensions built for python.org's 2.7. One way or another, pain will happen.
