[Bf-python] Arch linux 64-bit. Release candidates cannot import system Python modules

[Ryan Southall]

Blender:
3.4.2 (default, Nov 24 2014, 15:22:10)
[GCC 4.7.1]

System:
3.4.3 (default, Sep  7 2015, 15:40:35)
[GCC 5.2.0]

Only a minor version difference. Could the different GCC versions cause it?
