New submission from Jeffrey Armstrong:

When attempting to build Python without dynamic loading (HAVE_DYNAMIC_LOADING 
is not defined), the module "_imp" will not have the function "exec_dynamic."  
However, Lib/bootstrap.py seems to assume that "_imp.exec_dynamic" exists, 
causing the error:

----
./python -E -S -m sysconfig --generate-posix-vars ;\
if test $? -ne 0 ; then \
        echo "generate-posix-vars failed" ; \
        rm -f ./pybuilddir.txt ; \
        exit 1 ; \
fi

when trying to build.  This error means that Python 3.5 will not be able to 
build in a purely static (no dynamic loading whatsoever) form.

This error was encountered in Python 3.5b4.
