I personally don't think we need to force a build error. Sure, it's likely in many cases that unsupported platforms will start developing build errors, and that's fine -- but at the same time there's a difference between "not supported" and "actively sabotaged". Given that most unsupported platforms have only a very small user base who care about Python, I doubt that we'll be inundated with bug reports. If an occasional one comes through, closing it with a reference to PEP 11 seems simple enough.
Given that the intended process is that a core dev sponsor must be found before support can be (re)instated, it makes sense to add a reminder to this section of the PEP.

A couple of options that I can think of:
