With Fedora 23 shipping python3 only in default installs,
/usr/bin/python will not exist there.  PCP could trigger installing
python2 on such a machine ...  or better, we should grow another
configury switch that changes the scripts' interpreter to
/usr/bin/python3.  (We did this just days ago for a wee python script
included with systemtap.)
