bpo-37500: Make sure dead code does not generate bytecode but also detect syntax errors (GH-14612)
https://bugs.python.org/issue37500
Add a new field to the compiler structure that allows to be configured
so no bytecode is emitted. In this way is possible to detect errors by
walking the nodes while preserving optimizations.
Clarify that plistlib's load and dump functions take a binary file object (GH-9825)
The documentation says that the fp parameter to plistlib.load "should be a
readable and binary file object" but the docstring only mentions that it
should be readable. Similarly, plistlib.dump's docstring only mentions
"writable". This commit clarifies that fp should also be binary.
bpo-26967: fix flag grouping with allow_abbrev=False (GH-14316)
The `allow_abbrev` option for ArgumentParser is documented and intended to disable support for unique prefixes of --options, which may sometimes be ambiguous due to deferred parsing.
However, the initial implementation also broke parsing of grouped short flags, such as `-ab` meaning `-a -b` (or `-a=b`). Checking the argument for a leading `--` before rejecting it fixes this.
This was prompted by pytest-dev/pytest#5469, so a backport to at least 3.8 would be great :smile:
And this is my first PR to CPython, so please let me know if I've missed anything!
bpo-30088: Document that existing dir structure isn't verified by mailbox.Maildir (GH-1163)
Hi,
I've faced an issue w/ `mailbox.Maildir()`. The case is following:
1. I create a folder with `tempfile.TemporaryDirectory()`, so it's empty
2. I pass that folder path as an argument when instantiating `mailbox.Maildir()`
3. Then I receive an exception happening because "there's no such file or directory" (namely `cur`, `tmp` or `new`) during interaction with Maildir
**Expected result:** subdirs are created during `Maildir()` instance creation.
**Actual result:** subdirs are assumed as existing which leads to exceptions during use.
**Workaround:** remove the actual dir before passing the path to `Maildir()`. It will be created automatically with all subdirs needed.
**Fix:** This PR. Basically it adds creation of subdirs regardless of whether the base dir existed before.
bpo-37521: No longer treat insertion into sys.modules as optional in importlib examples (GH-14723)
Fix importlib examples to insert any newly created modules via importlib.util.module_from_spec() immediately into sys.modules instead of after calling loader.exec_module().
Move `threaded_import_hangers`, a dependency of `test_threaded_import`, to the directory `test_importlib/`. Also update the import references for `threaded_import_hangers` in `test_threaded_import`.
Remove redundant check from arraymodule b_getitem (GH-14676)
The `arraymodule`'s `b_getitem` function returns a `PyLong` converted
from `arrayobject`'s array, by dereferencing a pointer to `char`.
When the `char` type is `signed char`, the `if (x >= 128) x -= 256;` comparison/code is redundant because a `signed char` will have a value of `[-128, 127]` and so `x` will never be greater or equal than 128.
This check was indeed needed for situations where a given compiler would assume `char` being `unsigned char` which would make `x` in `[0, 256]` range.
However, the check can be removed if we cast the `ob_item` into a signed char pointer (`signed char*`) instead of `char*`.

bpo-37558: Shared memory tests are failing due to double slashes (GH-14703)
With the addition of shared memory into Python 3.8, we now have three tests failing on Solaris, namely `test_multiprocessing_fork`, `test_multiprocessing_forkserver` and `test_multiprocessing_spawn`. The reason seems to be incorrect name handling which results in two slashes being prepended.

Fix multiprocessing.util.get_temp_dir() finalizer: clear also the

bpo-19696: Replace deprecated method in "test_import_pkg.py" (GH-14466)
Replacing the deprecated method "random.choose" to "random.choice" was technically not part of the original issue. However, it was discussed in the talk page and involved one of the files being moved. I assumed this was too minor to justify the creation of a separate issue.
Also, I added my name to the contributors list in Misc/ACKS. This will be my third PR to cpython, forgot to do it in the previous ones.
test_distutils.test_build_ext() is now able to remove the temporary
directory on Windows: don't import the newly built C extension ("xx")
in the current process, but test it in a separated process.
ssl.match_hostname() no longer accepts IPv4 addresses with additional text
after the address and only quad-dotted notation without trailing
whitespaces. Some inet_aton() implementations ignore whitespace and all data
after whitespace, e.g. '127.0.0.1 whatever'.
Short notations like '127.1' for '127.0.0.1' were already filtered out.
The bug was initially found by Dominik Czarnota and reported by Paul Kehrer.

Under some conditions the earlier fix for bpo-18075, "Infinite recursion
tests triggering a segfault on Mac OS X", now causes failures on macOS
when attempting to change stack limit with resource.setrlimit
resource.RLIMIT_STACK, like regrtest does when running the test suite.
The reverted change had specified a non-default stack size when linking
the python executable on macOS. As of macOS 10.14.4, the previous
code causes a hard failure when running tests, although similar
failures had been seen under some conditions under some earlier
systems. Reverting the change to the interpreter stack size at link
time helped for release builds but caused some tests to fail when
built --with-pydebug. Try the opposite approach: continue to build
the interpreter with an increased stack size on macOS and remove
the failing setrlimit call in regrtest initialization. This will
definitely avoid the resource.RLIMIT_STACK error and should have
no, or fewer, side effects.
