The doccumentation at https://docs.python.org/3.10/library/weakref.html cautions that the `WeakKeyDictionary` and `WeakValueDictionary` are susceptible to the problem of dictionary mutation during iteration.
These notes present the user with a problem that has no easy solution.
I dug into the implementation and found that fortunately, Antoine Pitrou already addressed this challenge (10 years ago!) by introducing an `_IterationGuard` context manager to the implementation, which delays mutation while an iteration is in progress.
I asked for confirmation and @pitrou agreed that these notes could be removed:

test_repl.test_close_stdin() now calls
support.suppress_msvcrt_asserts() to fix the test on Windows.
* Move suppress_msvcrt_asserts() from test.libregrtest.setup to
test.support. Make its verbose parameter optional: verbose=False by
default.
* Add msvcrt.GetErrorMode().
* SuppressCrashReport now uses GetErrorMode() and SetErrorMode() of
the msvcrt module, rather than using ctypes.
* Remove also an unused variable (deadline) in wait_process().
The PEP 353, written in 2005, introduced PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T. Python no
longer supports macOS 10.4 and Visual Studio 2010, but requires more
recent macOS and Visual Studio versions. In 2020 with Python 3.10, it
is now safe to use directly "%zu" to format size_t and "%zi" to
format Py_ssize_t.
* PEP 554 for use in test suite
* 📜🤖 Added by blurb_it.
* Fix space
* Add doc to doc tree
* Move to modules doc tree
* Fix suspicious doc errors
* Fix test__all
* Docs docs docs
* Support isolated and fix wait
* Fix white space
* Remove undefined from __all__
* Fix recv and add exceptions
* Remove unused exceptions, fix pep 8 formatting errors and fix _NOT_SET in recv_nowait()
* Update Lib/test/support/interpreters.py

* Remove documentation (module is for internal use)

"make install" now uses the PLATLIBDIR variable for the destination
lib-dynload/ directory when ./configure --with-platlibdir is used.
Update --with-platlibdir comment in configure.
Export explicitly the Py_GetArgcArgv() function to the C API and
document the function. Previously, it was exported implicitly which
no longer works since Python is built with -fvisibility=hidden.
* Add PyConfig._orig_argv member.
* Py_InitializeFromConfig() no longer calls _PyConfig_Write() twice.
* PyConfig_Read() no longer initializes Py_GetArgcArgv(): it is now
_PyConfig_Write() responsibility.
* _PyConfig_Write() result type becomes PyStatus instead of void.
* Write an unit test on Py_GetArgcArgv().
* Rename pycore_byteswap.h to pycore_bitutils.h.
* Move popcount_digit() to pycore_bitutils.h as _Py_popcount32().
* _Py_popcount32() uses GCC and clang builtin function if available.
* Add unit tests to _Py_popcount32().
build-installer now looks in its directory of source tarballs
for a suitable html tarball of the same version. If so, it
will unpack and use it rather than rebuilding the html format
documentation set from the source repo. This is intended as
a speedup for test builds of the installer. Files names must
be in the same format as produced by the docs build for download,
for example, `python-3.9.0b1-docs-html.tar.bz2`.
* Provide native .files support on SourceFileLoader.
* Add native importlib.resources.files() support to zipimporter. Remove fallback support.
* make regen-all
* 📜🤖 Added by blurb_it.
* Move 'files' into the ResourceReader so it can carry the relevant module name context.
* Create 'importlib.readers' module and add FileReader to it.
* Add zip reader and rely on it for a TraversableResources object on zipimporter.
* Remove TraversableAdapter, no longer needed.
* Update blurb.
* Replace backslashes with forward slashes.
* Incorporate changes from importlib_metadata 2.0, finalizing the interface for extension via get_resource_reader.

In debug mode, ensure that free lists are no longer used after being
finalized. Set numfree to -1 in finalization functions
(eg. _PyList_Fini()), and then check that numfree is not equal to -1
before using a free list (e.g list_dealloc()).
