* bpo-32962: python-gdb catchs ValueError on read_var() (GH-7692)
python-gdb now catchs ValueError on read_var(): when Python has no
debug symbols for example.
(cherry picked from commit 019d33b7a4)
* bpo-32962: python-gdb catchs UnicodeDecodeError (GH-7693)
python-gdb now catchs UnicodeDecodeError exceptions when calling
string().
(cherry picked from commit d22fc0bc7d)
bpo-29367: python-gdb.py now supports also method-wrapper
(wrapperobject) objects.
(cherry picked from commit 611083331d)
LibreSSL 2.7 introduced OpenSSL 1.1.0 API. The ssl module now detects
LibreSSL 2.7 and only provides API shims for OpenSSL < 1.1.0 and
LibreSSL < 2.7.
Documentation updates and fixes for failing tests will be provided in
another patch set.

The Windows build now depends on Python 3.6 to fetch externals, but it
will be downloaded via NuGet (which is downloaded via PowerShell) if it
is not available via `py -3.6`. This means the only thing that must be
installed on a modern Windows box to do a full build of CPython with all
extensions is Visual Studio.
Cherry-picked from 51599e2bdd, parts of 40a23e8899, parts of 68d663cf85, d5cd21d75a, and possibly others that I've missed.
Also:
* Rename db -> bsddb for disambiguity
* Update sqlite3 to 3.14.2.0 since it's the version we use on 3.x, and it's simpler to just use it than to also upload the old version to cpython-source-deps
* Add PCbuild/*.ilk to .gitignore
* bpo-31221: patchcheck ignores external libraries (#3109)
Tools/scripts/patchcheck.py now ignores changes in directories which
are copies of external libraries:
* Modules/_ctypes/libffi_msvc/
* Modules/_ctypes/libffi_osx/
* Modules/_decimal/libmpdec/
* Modules/expat/
* Modules/zlib/
Drop also support for Mercurial, since CPython migrated to Git.
Exclude also libmpdec
patchcheck: exclude also libffi_osx and libffi_msvc
(cherry picked from commit 4a347ce426)
* Exclude also Modules/_ctypes/libffi on Python 2.7
* Remove _decimal/libmpdec, not in Python 2.7
Additional changes needed to backport:
- dropped legacy SVN support from patchcheck
- use subprocess.PIPE to silence expected error output
- don't try to use subprocess.Popen as a context manager
- don't try to pass a keyword argument to str.split()
(cherry picked from commit 482f7a274f)
This changes the main documentation, doc strings, source code comments, and a
couple error messages in the test suite. In some cases the word was removed
to fix the grammar.
Issue #26799: Fix python-gdb.py: don't get C types once when the Python code is
loaded, but get C types on demand. The C types can change if python-gdb.py is
loaded before the Python executable. Patch written by Thomas Ilsche.
* Add py-bt-full command
* py-bt now gives an output similar to a regular Python traceback
* py-bt indicates:
- if the garbage collector is running
- if the thread is waiting for the GIL
- detect PyCFunction_Call to get the name of the builtin function
The old project files move to PC/VS9.0 and remain supported.
VS2008 is still required to build 2.7; VS2010 (or later, plus Windows SDK 7.1)
is *also* required to use the new project files.
