Bingo!

Yes, please -- when you do, please shoot a link over to this ticket so
we can track it on this side.

It's quite possible that ansible upstream may be uninterested in
fixing this as it will get fixed "automatically" when we switch to
using python3.  We're working on that now, and we hope to have it
finished in time to get into buster before the freeze.  They still
advertise py2 support, though, so I consider it still a bug.
