 You can test what Python version is available with: >
 	if has('python')
 	  echo 'there is Python 2.x'
-  	elseif has('python3')
+	endif
+  	if has('python3')
 	  echo 'there is Python 3.x'
 	endif
 
 Note however, that if Python 2 and 3 are both available, but not loaded,
 these has() calls will try to load them.
 
+To avoid loading the dynamic library, only check if Vim was compiled with
+python support: >
+	if has('python_compiled')
+	  echo 'compiled with Python 2.x support'
+	  if has('python_dynamic')
+	    echo 'Python 2.x dynamically loaded'
+	  endif
+	endif
+  	if has('python3_compiled')
+	  echo 'compiled with Python 3.x support'
+	  if has('python3_dynamic')
+	    echo 'Python 3.x dynamically loaded'
+	  endif

+This also tells you whether Python is dynamically loaded, which will fail if
+the runtime library cannot be found.
