New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com>: Private macros Py_SETREF and Py_XSETREF were introduced in 3.6 and backported to all maintained versions for fixing bugs (see issue20440 and issue26200). They are helpful and used not only for the primary purpose, but also for simplifying the code. Their names don't start from underscore because I planned to make them public and didn't want massive renaming and backporting conflicts. Now I think it is a time to add them officially to the stable C API.
