Is this something that Python even *can* reasonably control,
particularly on the various Linux distributions?

What might be helpful would be a few more symbolics (if any are
actually missing) and a few test environments that use something
unexpected for each value, so that you *will* notice if you have
hardcoded assumptions specific to your own setup.
