Yes, it looks like DEPENDS_ARGS is the culprit here. The conditionals
within the configure script of pygobject3-common can run into
situations, where they do not override PYTHON_VERSION properly.

We have two ways around that:

- override PYTHON_VERSION in the individual ports, which break that way
  - quickly done
  - has to be done on a port-per-port basis
  - adds another "hack" to maintain per port
- rename PYTHON_VERSION in the ports infrastructure to something else
  - more clean approach(?)
  - not done quickly
  - may affect users using PYTHON_VERSION actively
  - may need other ports to receive additional changes
  - needs a full exp-run (without isolations, so poudriere is a no-op)

As workaround, I'd go with the first option for now. Depending on how
the gnome stuff evolves, we may need to look into option two as well.

Cheers
Marcus
