If it merely needs to execute some python scripts (seems to be the case
here), rather than build something like python modules, I don't think
python3 cygclass is needed, but in that case you should add it as build
dep.

Cygport assumes and performs "inherit autotools" - sometimes produces mysterious

I've always used remote URI definitions for upstream patches, for example:
# patch source repos - note *plain* text format patches
DEBIAN=https://sources.debian.org/data/main/${NAME:0:1}/$NAME/1.7.2-1/debian/patches
# Fedora patches from explicit latest f4# branch rather than rawhide or main!
FEDORA=https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/$NAME/raw/f42/f # explicit f42 branch
GENTOO=https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/plain/dev-libs/$NAME/files
OPENSUSE=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bmwiedemann/openSUSE/raw/refs/heads/master/packages/${NAME:0:1}/$NAME
PATCH_URI="
$DEBIAN/...patch
$FEDORA/...patch
$GENTOO/$NAME-1.7.2-docdir.patch
$GENTOO/$NAME-1.7.2-python3.patch
$GENTOO/$NAME-1.7.2-uninitialized-variable.patch
$OPENSUSE/...patch
