- Issue #9651: Fix a crash when ctypes.create_string_buffer(0) was passed to file.write()
- Issue #11241: subclasses of ctypes.Array can now be subclassed.
Windows does set the errno attribute to ENOENT, but the error message
displays the Windows error number (3 -> ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND), not the
errno number (2 -> ENOENT).
The Unix errno corresponding to 3 is ESRCH, explaining the confusion,
which can be seen in the following snippet:
>>> shutil.rmtree("foo")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "Z:\default\lib\shutil.py", line 272, in rmtree
onerror(os.listdir, path, sys.exc_info())
File "Z:\default\lib\shutil.py", line 270, in rmtree
names = os.listdir(path)
WindowsError: [Error 3] The system cannot find the path specified:
'foo\\*.*'
>>> e = sys.last_value
>>> e.errno
2
>>> e.winerror
3
>>> errno.errorcode[2]
'ENOENT'

There was already a test for this, but it was complicated and had a
subtle bug (custom command objects need to be put in dist.command_obj so
that other command objects may see them) that rendered it moot.
Packaging uses the shutil.make_archive function copied from distutils,
which does not support compress. There is no test to check that
“bdist --format whatever” works, so this slipped by.
These options were used to implement “setup.py --name”,
“setup.py --version”, etc. which are now handled by the pysetup metadata
action or direct parsing of the setup.cfg file.
As a side effect, the Distribution class no longer accepts a 'url' key
in its *attrs* argument: it has to be 'home-page' to be recognized as a
valid metadata field and passed down to the dist.metadata object.
I cleaned up some comments, docstrings and code along the way.
When called without option (“-f field” or “--all”), “pysetup metadata”
didn’t do anything useful. Now it prints out all metadata fields. The
“--all” option is removed.
If the version of zlib used to compile the zlib module is incompatible
with the one that is actually linked in, then calls into zlib will fail.
This can leave attributes of the z_stream uninitialized, so we must take
care to avoid segfaulting by trying to use an invalid pointer.
