I would suggest the following:
* python2-2.7.z continues to provide all '2' symlinks.
* python38 be updated to 3.8.2, and 3.8 be designated the next default
'python3' version (with the '3' symlinks continued to be kept
separate), and adjust python-wheel.cygclass accordingly.
* Similarly, a separate package (in Fedora it's called 'python-
unversioned-command') provide unversioned symlinks, pointing to 2.7 for
now (for compatibility).
* Anything currently dependent on 'python' or 'python2' should either
be dropped if no longer needed, switched to 3 is possible, otherwise
rebuilt.
* Drop 2.7 from the "default" version set in python-wheel.cygclass, and
only build those modules that are actually needed by other things by
specifying "all".
* Once that's done, look at what's still depending on /usr/bin/python
('python-unversioned-command'), and based on that decide when that can
be changed to point to python3.

The plan looks fine. Thanks for it
unfortunately I see unexpected segfault on the testsuite
0:00:03 load avg: 1.65 [ 24/404] test_argparse -- test_applesingle skipped
0:00:11 load avg: 1.58 [ 25/404] test_array
0:00:12 load avg: 1.58 [ 26/404] test_ascii_formatd
make: *** [Makefile:878: test] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
for both 2.7.17 and your original 2.7.16.
as I saw other segfault on other programs recently
I assume that one of compiler/binutils/cygwin has some problem.
3.8.2 seems to stall later in the test, so it is another issue.
