 +- Issue #12120, #12119: skip a test in packaging and distutils
 +  if sys.dont_write_bytecode is set to True.
 +

 +- Issue #9516: Issue #9516: avoid errors in sysconfig when MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
 +  is set in shell.
 +
 +- Issue #8650: Make zlib module 64-bit clean. compress(), decompress() and
 +  their incremental counterparts now raise OverflowError if given an input
 +  larger than 4GB, instead of silently truncating the input and returning
 +  an incorrect result.
 +
 +- Issue #12050: zlib.decompressobj().decompress() now clears the unconsumed_tail
 +  attribute when called without a max_length argument.
 +
 +- Issue #12062: Fix a flushing bug when doing a certain type of I/O sequence
 +  on a file opened in read+write mode (namely: reading, seeking a bit forward,
 +  writing, then seeking before the previous write but still within buffered
 +  data, and writing again).

 +  Patch by John O'Connor.

 +- Issue #11799: urllib.request Authentication Handlers will raise a ValueError
 +  when presented with an unsupported Authentication Scheme. Patch contributed
 +  by Yuval Greenfield.
 +
 +- Issue #10419, #6011: build_scripts command of distutils handles correctly
 +  non-ASCII path (path to the Python executable). Open and write the script in
 +  binary mode, but ensure that the shebang is decodable from UTF-8 and from the
 +  encoding of the script.
 +
 +- Issue #8498: In socket.accept(), allow to specify 0 as a backlog value in
 +  order to accept exactly one connection.  Patch by Daniel Evers.

 +
 +- Issue #12012: ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv2 becomes optional.
 +
 +- Issue #8407: The signal handler writes the signal number as a single byte
 +  instead of a nul byte into the wakeup file descriptor. So it is possible to
 +  wait more than one signal and know which signals were raised.
 +
 +- Issue #8407: Add pthread_kill(), sigpending() and sigwait() functions to the
 +  signal module.
 +
 +- Issue #11927: SMTP_SSL now uses port 465 by default as documented.  Patch
