The silencing of DeprecationWarning was not taking -3 into consideration. Since
Py3K warnings are DeprecationWarning by default this was causing -3 to
essentially be a no-op. Now DeprecationWarning is only silenced if -3 is not
used.

Closes issue #7700. Thanks Ezio Melotti and Florent Xicluna for patch help.
