A Debian/Ubuntu pypy does, though. And IIRC, that's what travis CI is
using.

It's the pep3147 patches:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/pypy.git;a=tree;f=debian/patches

I thought it would be a useful feature, to make transition between pypy
versions in Debian easier. Proposed the patches in #pypy, and the
reception was lukewarm, so I never pushed harder.
