debian 8 did the trick.

The output from older python was in plpython_error.out the output from newer
python in plpython_error_5.out. Looked like python2 specific output.

Pushed.

I guess I should have grokked the _5 suffix - but the _3 suffix was used for
python3 specific content, so it wasn't obvious. Should we rename the file to
plpython_error_35.out?

A bit depressing to have a 500 line alternative output file for a one line
diff :(.
