Message 378107 - Python tracker

That assumption is false. For starters, distribution packagers do:

https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/3fc85177e35d1ff9ab000950c5d1af9567730434/trunk/PKGBUILD#L72-L84

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python3.9/blob/master/f/python3.9.spec#_1168

When I build a Python from source (via an Arch User Repository package), I do as well, and so does anyone installing those packages by default.

Anyone building with --enable-optimizations (PGO) will likely do so as well, though I'm not sure if that runs this part of the testsuite.
