   Middle of this year, by my estimate! It is contingent on RHEL 8.4 being 
released and on getting rid of some of the older Ubuntu in CI.
   
   I'm putting the `set`s in the top level CMake only. And want to keep the ifs 
around it, so that users can override it, if they really want to prioritize 
systemwide setting for python. I guess that CMake made that the default 
behavior for a good reason. It is only my fault that I cannot figure what 
reason that might be,
