attach debug log

clean install, debug enabled

Apart from the fun factor, I don't think there's any reason for the maintainers to care: Python 3.0 was a transitional release and already isn't supported anymore by the PSF. Furthermore given it shouldn't have reached a wide public, there is no "backlog" to support as with the various 2.x releases.

AFAIK, it could as well be removed from the ports tree.
