Build and link with private copy of Tcl/Tk 8.6 for the macOS 10.6+
installer. The 10.9+ installer variant already does this. This means that
the Python 3.7 provided by the python.org macOS installers no longer need or
use any external versions of Tcl/Tk, either system-provided or user-
installed, such as ActiveTcl.
test_asyncio hangs indefinitely on macOS 10.13.2+ on `read_pty_output()`
using the KqueueSelector. Closing `proto.transport` (as is done in
`write_pty_output()`) seems to fix it.

As was discussed in both issues, some typing forms deserve to be treated
as immutable by copy and pickle modules, so that:
* copy(X) is X
* deepcopy(X) is X
* loads(dumps(X)) is X # pickled by reference
This PR adds such behaviour to:
* Type variables
* Special forms like Union, Any, ClassVar
* Unsubscripted generic aliases to containers like List, Mapping, Iterable
This not only resolves inconsistencies mentioned in the issues, but also
improves backwards compatibility with previous versions of Python
(including 3.6).
Note that this requires some dances with __module__ for type variables
(similar to NamedTuple) because the class TypeVar itself is define in typing,
while type variables should get module where they were defined.

bpo-32844: subprocess: Fix a potential misredirection of a low fd to stderr.
When redirecting, subprocess attempts to achieve the following state:
each fd to be redirected to is less than or equal to the fd
it is redirected from, which is necessary because redirection
occurs in the ascending order of destination descriptors.
It fails to do so in a couple of corner cases,
for example, if 1 is redirected to 2 and 0 is closed in the parent.
Historically, -m added the empty string as sys.path
zero, meaning it resolved imports against the current
working directory, the same way -c and the interactive
prompt do.
This changes the sys.path initialisation to add the
*starting* working directory as sys.path[0] instead,
such that changes to the working directory while the
program is running will have no effect on imports
when using the -m switch.
- new test case for pre-initialization of sys.warnoptions and sys._xoptions
- restored ability to call these APIs prior to Py_Initialize
- updated the docs for the affected APIs to make it clear they can be
called before Py_Initialize
- also enhanced the existing embedding test cases
to check for expected settings in the sys module

If a non-dataclass derives from a frozen dataclass, allow attributes to be set.
Require either all of the dataclasses in a class hierarchy to be frozen, or all non-frozen.
Store `@dataclass` parameters on the class object under `__dataclass_params__`. This is needed to detect frozen base classes.
Multi-phase initialized modules allow m_traverse to be called while the

Creating backup files with ~ suffix can be undesirable in some environment,
such as when building RPM packages. Instead of requiring the user to remove

New tests also added.
I also made the comments in line with the builtin Grammar/Grammar. PEP 306 was

fstat may block for long time if the file descriptor is on a

_Py_fstat_noraise() does not release the GIL, and most calls release the
GIL explicitly around it.
This patch fixes last 2 calls to _Py_fstat_no_raise(), avoiding hangs

Like Python, IDLE optionally runs one startup file in the Shell window
before presenting the first interactive input prompt. For IDLE,
option -s runs a file named in environmental variable IDLESTARTUP or

file name before running the file and unsets it before the first
prompt. IDLE now does the same when run normally, without the -n

* Prevent low-grade poplib REDOS (CVE-2018-1060)
The regex to test a mail server's timestamp is susceptible to
catastrophic backtracking on long evil responses from the server.
Happily, the maximum length of malicious inputs is 2K thanks
to a limit introduced in the fix for CVE-2013-1752.
A 2KB evil response from the mail server would result in small slowdowns

OpenSSL 1.1 has introduced a new API to set the minimum and maximum
supported protocol version. The API is easier to use than the old
OP_NO_TLS1 option flags, too.
Since OpenSSL has no call to set minimum version to highest supported,
the implementation emulate maximum_version = MINIMUM_SUPPORTED and
minimum_version = MAXIMUM_SUPPORTED by figuring out the minumum and
maximum supported version at compile time.

ssl_version=PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT with cert_reqs=CERT_REQUIRED.
SSLContext.wrap_socket() and SSLContext.wrap_bio are the recommended API

* bpo-32947: OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 / TLS 1.3 fixes
Misc fixes and workarounds for compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 and

default. Some test cases only apply to TLS 1.2. Other tests currently

I'm going to address these issues when OpenSSL 1.1.1 reaches beta.
OpenSSL 1.1.1 has added a new option OP_ENABLE_MIDDLEBOX_COMPAT for TLS

broken middle boxes. Users should be able to disable the hack and CPython's test suite needs

Previously, the ssl module stored international domain names (IDNs)
as U-labels. This is problematic for a number of reasons -- for
example, it made it impossible for users to use a different version
of IDNA than the one built into Python.
After this change, we always convert to A-labels as soon as possible,
and use them for all internal processing. In particular, server_hostname
attribute is now an A-label, and on the server side there's a new
sni_callback that receives the SNI servername as an A-label rather than
a U-label.
Make test.support.temp_cwd() fork-safe. The context manager test.support.temp_cwd() no longer removes the temporary directory when executing in a process other than the parent it entered from.
If a forked child exits the context manager it won't do the cleanup.
dump is similar to print but less flexible. lastopenbracketpos is now always initialized in _study2, as was stmt_bracketing, so the class settings are not needed. get_last_open_bracket_pos is never called.
os.dup2() tests for dup3() system call availability at runtime,
but doesn't remember the result across calls, repeating
the test on each call with inheritable=False.
Since the caller of os.dup2() is expected to hold the GIL,
fix this by making the variable holding the test result static.
GUI test test_file_buttons() only looks at initial ascii-only lines,
but failed on systems where open() defaults to 'ascii' because
readline() internally reads and decodes far enough ahead to encounter

fnmatch.translate() no longer produces patterns which contain set
operations.
Sets starting with '[' or containing '--', '&&', '~~' or '||' will
be interpreted differently in regular expressions in future versions.
Currently they emit warnings. fnmatch.translate() now avoids producing
patterns containing such sets by accident.
Fix a rare but potential pre-exec child process deadlock in subprocess on POSIX systems when marking file descriptors inheritable on exec in the child process. This bug appears to have been introduced in 3.4 with the inheritable file descriptors support.

This issue covers various changes for the macOS installers provided via python.org for 3.7.0.
- Provide a provisional new installer variant for macOS 10.9 and later systems with 64-bit (x86_64) architecture only. Apple has made it known that future versions of macOS will only fully support 64-bit executables and some other third-party software suppliers have chosen 10.9 as their oldest supported system.
- Support **Tcl/Tk 8.6** with the 10.9 installer variant.
- Upgrade **OpenSSL** to 1.1.0g and **SQLite** to 3.22.0.
- The compiler name used for the interpreter build and for modules built with **Distutils / pip** is now _gcc_ rather than _gcc-4.2_. And extension module builds will no longer try to force use of an old SDK if present.
No longer add /Library/Python/3.x/site-packages, the Apple-supplied
system Python site-packages directory, to sys.path for macOS framework
builds in case Apple ships a version of Python 3. A similar change
was made earlier to Python 2.7 where it was found that the coupling
between the system Python and a user-installed framework Python often
caused confusion or pip install failures.
This allows the compression level to be specified when writing zipfiles
(for the entire file *and* overridden on a per-file basis).

Do not allow receiving a SIGINT to cause the subprocess module to trigger an
immediate SIGKILL of the child process. SIGINT is normally sent to all child
processes by the OS at the same time already as was the established normal
behavior in 2.7 and 3.2. This behavior change was introduced during the fix to https://bugs.python.org/issue12494 and is generally surprising to command line
tool users who expect other tools launched in child processes to get their own
SIGINT and do their own cleanup.
In Python 3.3-3.6 subprocess.call and subprocess.run would immediately
SIGKILL the child process upon receiving a SIGINT (which raises a
KeyboardInterrupt). We now give the child a small amount of time to
exit gracefully before resorting to a SIGKILL.
This is also the case for subprocess.Popen.__exit__ which would
previously block indefinitely waiting for the child to die. This was
hidden from many users by virtue of subprocess.call and subprocess.run
sending the signal immediately.
Behavior change: subprocess.Popen.__exit__ will not block indefinitely
when the exiting exception is a KeyboardInterrupt. This is done for
user friendliness as people expect their ^C to actually happen. This
could cause occasional orphaned Popen objects when not using `call` or
`run` with a child process that hasn't exited.
Refactoring involved: The Popen.wait method deals with the
KeyboardInterrupt second chance, existing platform specific internals
have been renamed to _wait().
Also fixes comment typos.

Until now Python used a hard coded white list of default TLS cipher
suites. The old approach has multiple downsides. OpenSSL's default
selection was completely overruled. Python did neither benefit from new
cipher suites (ChaCha20, TLS 1.3 suites) nor blacklisted cipher suites.
For example we used to re-enable 3DES.
Python now defaults to OpenSSL DEFAULT cipher suite selection and black
lists all unwanted ciphers. Downstream vendors can override the default
cipher list with --with-ssl-default-suites.

PyMemoryView_FromMemory() created a memoryview referring to

- primary change is to add a new default filter entry for

Third party projects may wish to hide their own internal machinery in
order to present more comprehensible tracebacks to end users
(e.g. Jinja2 and Trio both do this).
Previously such projects have had to rely on ctypes to do so:
fe3dadacdf/jinja2/debug.py (L345)1e86b1aee8/trio/_core/_multierror.py (L296)
This provides a Python level API for creating and modifying real
Traceback objects, allowing tracebacks to be edited at runtime.
Patch by Nathaniel Smith.
The picklers do no longer allocate temporary memory when dumping large
bytes and str objects into a file object. Instead the data is
directly streamed into the underlying file object.
Previously the C implementation would buffer all content and issue a
single call to file.write() at the end of the dump. With protocol 4
this behavior has changed to issue one call to file.write() per frame.
The Python pickler with protocol 4 now dumps each frame content as a
memoryview to an IOBytes instance that is never reused and the
memoryview is no longer released after the call to write. This makes it
possible for the file object to delay access to the memoryview of
previous frames without forcing any additional memory copy as was
already possible with the C pickler.
Add a new argument "-m" to the pdb module to allow
users to run `python -m pdb -m my_module_name`.
This relies on private APIs in the runpy module to work,
but we can get away with that since they're both part of
the standard library and can be updated together if
the runpy internals get refactored.
This module has never been enabled by default, never worked correctly
on x86-64, and caused ABI problems that caused C extension
compatibility. See bpo-29137 for details/discussion.
Fix deadlocks in :class:`concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor` when task arguments or results cause pickling or unpickling errors.

Starting with AIX6.1 there is support in libc.a for uuid (RFC4122)
This patch provides the changes needed for this integration with the OS.
On AIX the base function is uuid_create() rather than uuid_generate_time()
The AIX uuid_t typedef is more aligned to the UUID field based definition
while the Linux typedef that is more aligned with UUID bytes
(or perhaps UUID bytes_le) definitions.
This is more complicated than it should be because we need to preserve the
useful mtime-based regeneration feature that lib2to3.pgen2.driver.load_grammar
has. We only look for the pickled grammar file with pkgutil.get_data and only if
the source file does not exist.
* _Py_InitializeCore() doesn't call _PyMem_SetupAllocators() anymore
if the PYTHONMALLOC environment variable is not set.
* pymain_cmdline() now sets the allocator to the default, instead of
setting the allocator in subfunctions.
* Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding() now calls
_PyMem_SetDefaultAllocator() to get a known allocator, to be able
to release the memory with the same allocator.
Even though Python marks any handles it opens as non-inheritable there
is still a race when using `subprocess.Popen` since creating a process
with redirected stdio requires temporarily creating inheritable handles.
By implementing support for `subprocess.Popen(close_fds=True)` we fix
this race.
In order to implement this we use PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST
which is available since Windows Vista. Which allows to pass an explicit
list of handles to inherit when creating a process.
This commit also adds `STARTUPINFO.lpAttributeList["handle_list"]`
which can be used to control PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST
directly.
Exactly which locale requests will end up giving
you the "C" locale is actually platform dependent.
A blank locale and "POSIX" will translate to "C"
on most Linux distros, but may not do so on other platforms, so this adjusts the way the tests are structured to better account for that.
This is an initial step towards fixing the current
test failure on Cygwin (hence the issue reference)
It no longer spends much time doing complex calculations and no
longer consumes much memory for creating large constants that will
be dropped later.
This fixes also bpo-21074.
