The :program:`configure` options ``--with-tcltk-includes`` and
``--with-tcltk-libs`` have been removed.
* CPython now has experimental support for cross compiling to WebAssembly
platform ``wasm32-emscripten``. The effort is inspired by previous work
like Pyodide.
(Contributed by Christian Heimes and Ethan Smith in :issue:`40280`.)
* CPython now has :pep:`11` tier 3 support for cross compiling to WebAssembly
platform ``wasm32-unknown-emscripten`` (Python in the browser). The effort
is inspired by previous work like `Pyodide <https://pyodide.org/>`_.
Emscripten provides a limited subset of POSIX APIs. Python standard
libraries features and modules related to networking, processes, threading,
signals, mmap, and users/groups are not available or don't work.
(Contributed by Christian Heimes and Ethan Smith in :gh:`84461`,
promoted in :gh:`95085`)
* CPython now has :pep:`11` tier 3 support for cross compiling to WebAssembly
platform ``wasm32-unknown-wasi`` (WebAssembly System Interface). Like on
Emscripten, only a subset of Python's standard library is available on WASI.
(Contributed by Christian Heimes in :gh:`90473`, promoted in :gh:`95085`)
* CPython will now use 30-bit digits by default for the Python :class:`int`
implementation. Previously, the default was to use 30-bit digits on platforms

- Heap memory and stack size are limited. Recursion or extensive memory
consumption can crash Python.
- Most stdlib modules with a dependency on external libraries are missing,
e.g. ``ctypes``, ``readline``, ``sqlite3``, ``ssl``, and more.
e.g. ``ctypes``, ``readline``, ``ssl``, and more.
- Shared extension modules are not implemented yet. All extension modules
are statically linked into the main binary. The experimental configure
option ``--enable-wasm-dynamic-linking`` enables dynamic extensions
