* Python now requires some C99 support in the toolchain to build. For more
information, see :pep:`7`.
* Cross-compiling CPython with the Android NDK and the Android API level set to
21 (Android 5.0 Lollilop) or greater, runs successfully. While Android is not
yet a supported platform, the Python test suite runs on the Android emulator
with only about 16 tests failures. See the Android meta-issue :issue:`26865`.
* The ``--with-optimizations`` configure flag has been added. Turning it on
will activate LTO and PGO build support (when available).
(Original patch by Alecsandru Patrascu of Intel in :issue:`26539`.)
