WaitForSingleObject() accepts timeout in milliseconds in the range
[0; 0xFFFFFFFE] (DWORD type). INFINITE value (0xFFFFFFFF) means no
timeout. 0xFFFFFFFE milliseconds is around 49.7 days.
PY_TIMEOUT_MAX is (0xFFFFFFFE * 1000) milliseconds on Windows, around
49.7 days.
Partially revert commit 37b8294d62.
On Unix, if the sem_clockwait() function is available in the C
library (glibc 2.30 and newer), the threading.Lock.acquire() method
now uses the monotonic clock (time.CLOCK_MONOTONIC) for the timeout,
rather than using the system clock (time.CLOCK_REALTIME), to not be
affected by system clock changes.
configure now checks if the sem_clockwait() function is available.
* Work correctly if an additional fresh module imports other
additional fresh module which imports a blocked module.
* Raises ImportError if the specified module cannot be imported
while all additional fresh modules are successfully imported.
* Support blocking packages.
* Always restore the import state of fresh and blocked modules
and their submodules.
* Fix test_decimal and test_xml_etree which depended on an undesired
side effect of import_fresh_module().
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() now clamps the timeout into the
[_PyTime_MIN; _PyTime_MAX] range (_PyTime_t type) if it is too large,
rather than calling Py_FatalError() which aborts the process.
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() no longer uses
MICROSECONDS_TO_TIMESPEC() to compute sem_timedwait() argument, but
_PyTime_GetSystemClock() and _PyTime_AsTimespec_truncate().
Fix _thread.TIMEOUT_MAX value on Windows: the maximum timeout is
0x7FFFFFFF milliseconds (around 24.9 days), not 0xFFFFFFFF
milliseconds (around 49.7 days).
Set PY_TIMEOUT_MAX to 0x7FFFFFFF milliseconds, rather than 0xFFFFFFFF
milliseconds.
Fix PY_TIMEOUT_MAX overflow test: replace (us >= PY_TIMEOUT_MAX) with
(us > PY_TIMEOUT_MAX).
* during tarfile parsing, a zlib error indicates invalid data
* tarfile.open now raises a descriptive exception from the zlib error
* this makes it clear to the user that they may be trying to open a
corrupted tar file
Fix the threading._shutdown() function when the threading module was
imported first from a thread different than the main thread: no
longer log an error at Python exit.
Fix a race condition in the Thread.join() method of the threading
module. If the function is interrupted by a signal and the signal
handler raises an exception, make sure that the thread remains in a
consistent state to prevent a deadlock.
Having `operator.call(obj, arg)` mean `type(obj).__call__(obj, arg)` is
consistent with the other dunder operators. The semantics with `*args,
**kwargs` then follow naturally from the single-arg semantics.
On Windows, time.sleep() now uses a waitable timer which has a
resolution of 100 ns (10^-7 sec). Previously, it had a solution of 1
ms (10^-3 sec).
* On Windows, time.sleep() now calls PyErr_CheckSignals() before
resetting the SIGINT event.
* Add _PyTime_As100Nanoseconds() function.
* Complete and update time.sleep() documentation.

Detect refcount bugs in C extensions when the empty Unicode string
singleton is destroyed by mistake.
* Move forward declarations to the top of unicodeobject.c.
* Simplifiy unicode_is_singleton().
TestResult methods addFailure(), addError(), addSkip() and
addSubTest() are now called immediately after raising an exception
in test or finishing a subtest. Previously they were called only
after finishing the test clean up.
unittest.TestCase.debug() raises now a SkipTest if the class or
the test method are decorated with the skipping decorator.
Previously it only raised a SkipTest if the test method was decorated
with other decorator in addition to the skipping decorator, or
if SkipTest was explicitly raised in the test or setup methods.
This can occur when the zip file gets deleted, you call zipimport.zipimporter.invalidate_cache(), and then try to use zipimport.zipimporter.find_spec() (i.e. you left the zip file path on sys.path).
Add the Py_ALWAYS_INLINE macro to ask the compiler to always inline a
static inline function. The compiler can ignore it and decides to not
inline the function.
* "fail*" and "assert*" aliases of TestCase methods.
* Broken from start TestCase method assertDictContainsSubset().
* Ignored TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule() parameter use_load_tests.
* Old alias _TextTestResult of TextTestResult.
This will enable us to drop the frozen module header files from the repository.
It does currently cause many source files to be built twice, which just takes more time. For whoever comes to fix this in the future, the files shared between freeze_module and pythoncore should be put into a static library that is consumed by both.
