* :func:`signal.signal` and :func:`signal.siginterrupt` raise an OSError,
instead of a RuntimeError: OSError has an errno attribute.
smtpd
-----
* The :mod:`smtpd` module now supports :rfc:`5321` (extended SMTP) and :rfc:`1870`
(size extension). Per the standard, these extensions are enabled if and only
if the client initiates the session with an ``EHLO`` command.
(Initial ``ELHO`` support by Alberto Trevino. Size extension by Juhana
Jauhiainen. Substantial additional work on the patch contributed by Michele
Orrù and Dan Boswell. :issue:`8739`)

The :class:`~smtplib.SMTP_SSL` constructor and the :meth:`~smtplib.SMTP.starttls`

.. Issue #11591: When :program:`python` was started with :option:`-S`,
``import site`` will not add site-specific paths to the module search
paths. In previous versions, it did. See changeset for doc changes in
various files. Contributed by Carl Meyer with editions by Éric Araujo.
* The -Q command-line flag and related artifacts have been removed. Code
checking sys.flags.division_warning will need updating.
