The changed behavior of sdist in 2.7 broke packaging for projects that
wanted to use a manually-maintained MANIFEST file (instead of having a
MANIFEST.in template and letting distutils generate the MANIFEST).
The fixes that were committed for #8688 (d29399100973 by Tarek and
f7639dcdffc3 by me) did not fix all issues exposed in the bug report,
and also added one problem: the MANIFEST file format gained comments,
but the read_manifest method was not updated to handle (i.e. ignore)
them. This changeset should fix everything; the tests have been
expanded and I successfully tested with Mercurial, which suffered from
this regression.
I have grouped the versionchanged directives for these bugs in one place
and added micro version numbers to help users know the quirks of the
exact version they’re using. I also removed a stanza in the docs that
was forgotten in Tarek’s first changeset.
Initial report, thorough diagnosis and patch by John Dennis, further
work on the patch by Stephen Thorne, and a few edits and additions by
me.
Without this patch python will fail to start properly when the environment
variable MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is set on MacOSX and has a value that is
not compatible with the value during Python's build. This is caused by code
in sysconfig that was only meant to be used in disutils.

To comply with the 2.x doc style, the methods in trace.rst use brackets around
optional arguments. The rest is a mostly straight merge, modulo support changed
to test_support and use of the old super call style in test_tuple.
