No, currently host-python is only for building target python packages. Not
for build tools that use python. We use the system python for that.

I've thought about changing that optionally. In that case,
host-system-python3 would select host-python3. But so far, I've not seen a
real need for it, because all reasonable Distros have a python that is
sufficiently new.
