The calendar.LocaleTextCalendar and calendar.LocaleHTMLCalendar
classes module now use locale.getlocale(), instead of using
locale.getdefaultlocale(), if no locale is specified.
Building Python now requires a C99 <math.h> header file providing a
NAN constant, or the __builtin_nan() built-in function. If a platform
does not support Not-a-Number (NaN), the Py_NO_NAN macro can be
defined in the pyconfig.h file.
This reduces the size of the data segment by **300 KB** of the executable because if the modules are deep-frozen then the marshalled frozen data just wastes space. This was inspired by comment by @gvanrossum in https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/29118#issuecomment-958521863. Note: There is a new option `--deepfreeze-only` in `freeze_modules.py` to change this behavior, it is on be default to save disk space.

* Revert "bpo-45173 Remove configparser deprecations"
This reverts commit df2284bc41.
* bpo-45173: Note these configparser deprecations will be removed in 3.12
This adds a slightly more detailed explanation of the change.
The most important point is that the changed/removed fields
were "subject to change" to begin with.
* Add PRECALL_FUNCTION opcode.
* Move 'call shape' varaibles into struct.
* Replace CALL_NO_KW and CALL_KW with KW_NAMES and CALL instructions.
* Specialize for builtin methods taking using the METH_FASTCALL | METH_KEYWORDS protocol.
* Allow kwnames for specialized calls to builtin types.
* Specialize calls to tuple(arg) and str(arg).
Remove the PyHeapType_GET_MEMBERS() macro. It was exposed in the
public C API by mistake, it must only be used by Python internally.
Use the PyTypeObject.tp_members member instead.
Rename PyHeapType_GET_MEMBERS() to _PyHeapType_GET_MEMBERS() and move
it to the internal C API.
Revert "bpo-45162: Remove many old deprecated unittest features (GH-28268)"
This reverts commit b0a6ede3d0.
We're deferring this change until 3.12 while upstream projects that use
the legacy assertion method names are fixed. See the issue for links
to the discussion. Many upstream projects now have issues and PRs
filed.
* Do not PUSH/POP traceback or type to the stack as part of exc_info
* Remove exc_traceback and exc_type from _PyErr_StackItem
* Add to what's new, because this change breaks things like Cython
When Python is embedded in other applications, it is not easy to determine which version of Python is being used. This change exposes the Python version as part of the API data. Tools like Austin (https://github.com/P403n1x87/austin) can benefit from this data when targeting applications like uWSGI, as the Python version can then be inferred systematically by looking at the exported symbols rather than relying on unreliable pattern matching or other hacks (like remote code execution etc...).

Exclude the PyUnicode_CHECK_INTERNED() macro from the limited C API,
because it uses the PyASCIIObject structure which is excluded from
the limited C API.

For very large numbers use divide-and-conquer algorithm for getting
benefit of Karatsuba multiplication of large numbers.
Do calculations completely in C unsigned long long instead of Python
integers if possible.
