Issue #18571 : Implementation of the PEP 446: file descriptors and file handles
...
are now created non-inheritable; add functions os.get/set_inheritable(),

Drop support for Windows 2000; allow any XP API (but not Vista+).
...
Drop SDK version configuration for Tk compilation, to not bind it to W2k

Issue #13703 : add a way to randomize the hash values of basic types (str, bytes, datetime)
...
in order to make algorithmic complexity attacks on (e.g.) web apps much more complicated.
The environment variable PYTHONHASHSEED and the new command line flag -R control this
behavior.
