On Unix, C extensions are no longer linked to libpython.
It is now possible to load a C extension built using a shared library
Python with a statically linked Python.
When Python is embedded, libpython must not be loaded with
RTLD_LOCAL, but RTLD_GLOBAL instead. Previously, using RTLD_LOCAL, it
was already not possible to load C extensions which were not linked
to libpython, like C extensions of the standard library built by the
"*shared*" section of Modules/Setup.
distutils, python-config and python-config.py have been modified.
bpo-28552, bpo-7774: Fix distutils.sysconfig if sys.executable is
None or an empty string: use os.getcwd() to initialize project_base.
Fix also the distutils build command: don't use sys.executable if
it's evaluated as false (None or empty string).
Command line options for the xlc compiler behave differently from gcc and clang,
so skip this test case for now when xlc is the compiler.
Patch by aixtools (Michael Felt)
platform.dist() is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.8. The
upload command itself should also not be used to upload to PyPI, but
while it continues to exist it should not use deprecated functions.
Two kind of mistakes:
1. Missed space. After concatenating there is no space between words.
2. Missed comma. Causes unintentional concatenating in a list of strings.
* Replace "master process" with "parent process"
* Replace "master option mappings" with "main option mappings"
* Replace "master pattern object" with "main pattern object"
* ssl: replace "master" with "server"
* And some other similar changes
