- Issue #9516: On Mac OS X, change Distutils to no longer globally attempt to
check or set the MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET environment variable for the
interpreter process. This could cause failures in non-Distutils subprocesses
and was unreliable since tests or user programs could modify the interpreter
environment after Distutils set it. Instead, have Distutils set the the
deployment target only in the environment of each build subprocess. It is
still possible to globally override the default by setting
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET before launching the interpreter; its value must be
greater or equal to the default value, the value with which the interpreter
was built.
- Issue #11802: The cache in filecmp now has a maximum size of 100 so that
it won't grow without bound.
