As of Xcode 7, SDKs for Apple platforms now include textual-format stub
libraries whose file names have a .tbd extension rather than the
standard OS X .dylib extension. The Apple compiler tool chain handles
these stub libraries transparently and the installed system shared libraries
are still .dylibs. However, the new stub libraries cause problems for
third-party programs that support building with Apple SDKs and make
build-time decisions based on the presence or paths of system-supplied
shared libraries in the SDK. In particular, building Python itself with
an SDK fails to find system-supplied libraries during setup.py's build of
standard library extension modules. The solution is to have
find_library_file() in Distutils search for .tbd files, along with
the existing types (.a, .so, and .dylib). Patch by Tim Smith.
Known limitations of the current implementation:
- documentation changes are incomplete
- there's a reference leak I haven't tracked down yet
The leak is most visible by running:
./python -m test -R3:3 test_importlib
However, you can also see it by running:
./python -X showrefcount
Importing the array or _testmultiphase modules, and
then deleting them from both sys.modules and the local
namespace shows significant increases in the total
number of active references each cycle. By contrast,
with _testcapi (which continues to use single-phase
initialisation) the global refcounts stabilise after
a couple of cycles.
Along the way, dismantle importlib._bootstrap._SpecMethods as it was
no longer relevant and constructing the new function required
partially dismantling the class anyway.
_decimal:
o Make all "mpd_t to C integer" conversion functions available in both the
64-bit and the 32-bit versions.
o Make all mixed mpd_t/C integer arithmetic functions available in the
32-bit version.
o Better handling of __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS for C++ users.
o Add struct tags (at the request of C++ users).
2) Check for libmpdec.so.2 if --with-system-libmpdec is used.

be specified:
./configure \

In addition, the options can be overridden with make:

The "Gestalt" function on OSX is deprecated (starting with OSX 10.8),
remove its usage from the stdlib. The patch removes a number of private
functions and a private module, but does not change the public API.
The removed code was effectively dead, the platform module has used
other code to fetch the OSX version for years and could only use
on the Gestalt-based code as a fallback. That fallback can only trigger
on broken OSX installs (that is, someone has removed parts of the system
install)
time.ctime(), gmtime(), time.localtime(), datetime.date.fromtimestamp(),
datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp() and datetime.datetime.utcfromtimestamp() now
raises an OverflowError, instead of a ValueError, if the timestamp does not fit
in time_t.
datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp() and datetime.datetime.utcfromtimestamp() now
round microseconds towards zero instead of rounding to nearest with ties going
away from zero.
and lifetime issues of dynamically allocated Py_buffer members (#9990)
as well as crashes (#8305, #7433). Many new features have been added
(See whatsnew/3.3), and the documentation has been updated extensively.
The ndarray test object from _testbuffer.c implements all aspects of
PEP-3118, so further development towards the complete implementation
of the PEP can proceed in a test-driven manner.
Thanks to Nick Coghlan, Antoine Pitrou and Pauli Virtanen for review
and many ideas.

* Use str.startswith(tuple): I didn't know this Python feature, Python rocks!

Two small fixes for the support for SDKs on MacOSX:
1) The code that checks if an path should be located in the SDK
explicitly excludes /usr/local. This fixes issue9046
2) The SDK variant for filtering "db_dirs_to_check" in setup.py
was not doing anything because of a missing assignment.

POSIX systems with a C extension module. This is required in order for

The unittest executes tests on both code paths to guarantee compatibility.

Always compile the all versions of the hashlib algorithm modules when Python
was compiled with Py_DEBUG defined. Otherwise the builtins are not compiled by
default for many developers due to OpenSSL being present, making it easier for
bugs to slip by. A future commit will add test code compare the behaviors of
all implementations when they are all available.
