 This comment would lead one to believe the script will run with python 3
 but problems remain:

 {{{
 # Optionally uses ipaddress (python 3 builtin) or py2-ipaddress (package)
 # for netblock analysis.
 }}}

 After running `2to3-3.7` on commit 6BC5C06D additional manual revisions
 were required per the attached patch.  A subtle certificate validation
 problem exists, not enough time to fix so disabled it.  Have good CA files
 in both system and Python directories and `openssl s_client` has no
 problem.

 {{{
 OUTPUT_CANDIDATES = True
 }}}

 is broken, wasn't prepared to spend the time hacking it.
