Same here, to be honest. I would have been content to remove the requirement
and not do the test but, since lighttpd is availible, I see no reason not to
use it.
I was refering to spawn-fcgi, not to lighttpd.

That would require back-porting a patch from upstream.[1]
Backporting the python3 patch to master makes sense too. Fedora is trying hard
to remove python2.
I seem to remember that RHEL 8 had the notion of a system python
(regardless
of version). If that rings a bell, please speak up. Otherwise, I'll just use
what dnf uses.

RHEL8 has platform-python, which is used by core tools like yum/dnf.
This is located at '/usr/libexec/platform-python' but this is python3.6 as
well.
I'm not sure it really makes sense to use this instead of system python,
because Fedora doesn't have (and will not have ?) a platform-python, so for the
sake of keeping the same spec for all branches, I'd go for the "real"
python3.
