Ideally, the FDB code should be compatible to both Python lines. We
simply don't know yet whether we can achieve this, and how much Python
version specific code we would need. Hence I would suggest to postpone
the decision about layout/solution until we would know.

I.e. let see what changes are/were necessary to make it run on P3 and
whether there is a way to fix that in P2/3 compatible way.
