Even though I force use of python3, it finds Python 2, takes that for its version, and aborts.

$ python3 ./waf configure --prefix=/usr
Setting top to : /home/xevix/coyaml
Setting out to : /home/xevix/coyaml/build
Checking for 'gcc' (c compiler) : ok
Checking for program python : /usr/bin/python
python executable '/usr/bin/python' different from sys.executable '/usr/bin/python3'
Checking for python version : (2, 7, 1, 'final', 0)
The python version is too old, expecting (3, 0, 0)
