Actually, the SyntaxError issue isn't related to pip but to setuptools 5.5
and 5.5.1 (Debian stable ships the latter).
Florian, your preference is to decline the change proposed by Chris and
just deal with any support queries when people see a log like below? I
understand it's not ideal to add workarounds for bugs in other software as
the proposal does, but it seems like a pragmatic solution to me.
