Description:
Python >=3.6 has systemtap userspace probes support implemented. It would be great if they were turned on in Arch package by default. (currently they're not included)
A simple build of the latest release with `--with-dtrace` succeeds and gives a binary with all the standard taps available and working:

$ readelf -n python
[...]
