I’ve made more edits than the bug report suggested to make sure the
generated setup script is compatible with many Python versions; a
comment in the source explains that in detail.
The cfg_to_args function uses old 2.x idioms like codecs.open and
RawConfigParser.readfp because I want the setup.py generated by packaging and
distutils2 to be the same. Most users won’t see the deprecation warning and I
ignore it in the test suite.
Thanks to David Barnett for the report and original patch.
If the version of zlib used to compile the zlib module is incompatible
with the one that is actually linked in, then calls into zlib will fail.
This can leave attributes of the z_stream uninitialized, so we must take
care to avoid segfaulting by trying to use an invalid pointer.

The changed behavior of sdist in 3.1 broke packaging for projects that
wanted to use a manually-maintained MANIFEST file (instead of having a
MANIFEST.in template and letting distutils generate the MANIFEST).
The fixes that were committed for #8688 (76643c286b9f by Tarek and
d54da9248ed9 by me) did not fix all issues exposed in the bug report,
and also added one problem: the MANIFEST file format gained comments,
but the read_manifest method was not updated to handle (i.e. ignore)
them. This changeset should fix everything; the tests have been
expanded and I successfully tested the 2.7 version with Mercurial, which
suffered from this regression.
I have grouped the versionchanged directives for these bugs in one place
and added micro version numbers to help users know the quirks of the
exact version they’re using.

work on the patch by Stephen Thorne, and a few edits and additions by
me.
to get channel binding data for the current SSL session (only the
"tls-unique" channel binding is implemented). This allows the
implementation of certain authentication mechanisms such as SCRAM-SHA-1-PLUS.

cleared by the garbage collector. This fixes a segfault when an instance
and its type get caught in a reference cycle, and the instance's
deallocator calls one of the methods on the type (e.g. when subclassing
IOBase).
