python36: updated to 3.6.4
Python 3.6.4 release candidate 1:
Core and Builtins
-----------------
- bpo-32176: co_flags.CO_NOFREE is now always set correctly by the code
object constructor based on freevars and cellvars, rather than needing to
be set correctly by the caller. This ensures it will be cleared
automatically when additional cell references are injected into a modified
code object and function.
- bpo-31949: Fixed several issues in printing tracebacks
(PyTraceBack_Print()).
* Setting sys.tracebacklimit to 0 or less now suppresses printing tracebacks.
* Setting sys.tracebacklimit to None now causes using the default limit.
* Setting sys.tracebacklimit to an integer larger than LONG_MAX now means using
the limit LONG_MAX rather than the default limit.
* Fixed integer overflows in the case of more than 2**31 traceback items on
Windows.
* Fixed output errors handling.
- bpo-30696: Fix the interactive interpreter looping endlessly when no
memory.
- bpo-20047: Bytearray methods partition() and rpartition() now accept only
bytes-like objects as separator, as documented. In particular they now
raise TypeError rather of returning a bogus result when an integer is
passed as a separator.
- bpo-31852: Fix a segmentation fault caused by a combination of the async
soft keyword and continuation lines.
- bpo-21720: BytesWarning no longer emitted when the *fromlist* argument of
__import__() or the __all__ attribute of the module contain bytes
instances.
- bpo-31825: Fixed OverflowError in the 'unicode-escape' codec and in
codecs.escape_decode() when decode an escaped non-ascii byte.
- bpo-28603: Print the full context/cause chain of exceptions on interpreter
exit, even if an exception in the chain is unhashable or compares equal to
later ones. Patch by Zane Bitter.
- bpo-31786: Fix timeout rounding in the select module to round correctly
negative timeouts between -1.0 and 0.0. The functions now block waiting
for events as expected. Previously, the call was incorrectly non-blocking.
Patch by Pablo Galindo.
- bpo-31642: Restored blocking "from package import module" by setting
sys.modules["package.module"] to None.
- bpo-31626: Fixed a bug in debug memory allocator. There was a write to
freed memory after shrinking a memory block.
- bpo-31619: Fixed a ValueError when convert a string with large number of
underscores to integer with binary base.
- bpo-31592: Fixed an assertion failure in Python parser in case of a bad
unicodedata.normalize(). Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-31588: Raise a TypeError with a helpful error message when class
creation fails due to a metaclass with a bad __prepare__() method.
Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-31566: Fix an assertion failure in _warnings.warn() in case of a bad
__name__ global. Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-31505: Fix an assertion failure in json, in case
_json.make_encoder() received a bad encoder() argument. Patch by Oren
Milman.
- bpo-31492: Fix assertion failures in case of failing to import from a
module with a bad __name__ attribute, and in case of failing to access
an attribute of such a module. Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-31490: Fix an assertion failure in ctypes class definition, in case
the class has an attribute whose name is specified in _anonymous_ but
not in _fields_. Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-31478: Fix an assertion failure in _random.Random.seed() in case the
argument has a bad __abs__() method. Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-31315: Fix an assertion failure in imp.create_dynamic(), when
spec.name is not a string. Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-31311: Fix a crash in the __setstate__() method of
ctypes._CData, in case of a bad __dict__. Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-31293: Fix crashes in true division and multiplication of a timedelta
object by a float with a bad as_integer_ratio() method. Patch by Oren
Milman.
- bpo-31285: Fix an assertion failure in warnings.warn_explicit, when the
return value of the received loader's get_source() has a bad splitlines()
method. Patch by Oren Milman.
- bpo-30817: PyErr_PrintEx() clears now the ignored exception that may be
raised by _PySys_SetObjectId(), for example when no memory.
Library
-------
- bpo-28556: Two minor fixes for typing module: allow shallow copying
instances of generic classes, improve interaction of __init_subclass__
with generics.
- bpo-27240: The header folding algorithm for the new email policies has
been rewritten, which also fixes bpo-30788, bpo-31831, and bpo-32182. In
particular, RFC2231 folding is now done correctly.
- bpo-32186: io.FileIO.readall() and io.FileIO.read() now release the GIL
when getting the file size. Fixed hang of all threads with inaccessible
NFS server. Patch by Nir Soffer.
- bpo-12239: Make :meth:msilib.SummaryInformation.GetProperty return
None when the value of property is VT_EMPTY. Initial patch by

message when it couldn't open or create an MSI file. Initial patch by
William Tisäter.
- bpo-32110: codecs.StreamReader.read(n) now returns not more than *n*
characters/bytes for non-negative *n*. This makes it compatible with

Fink.
