+   This opcode performs several operations before a with block starts.  First,

+- Issue #6101: A new opcode, SETUP_WITH, has been added to speed up the with

 - Issue #5829: complex("1e500") no longer raises OverflowError.  This
   makes it consistent with float("1e500") and interpretation of real
