Thanks, fixed.

Hmm, *compiling* it with both flags works, but not sure what happens
at runtime then? Arch seems to provide a gvim and a gvim-python3
package, and I suspect there is some reason for that.

I'll ask the gvim-maintainer, I'd guess he knows more :)

That is a good point. Ended up including it, and adding it to
provides/conflicts.

Thanks for all your help!
