STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com> added the comment:

I don't think that we should backport this change to 3.7 and older.

I understand that the change is about supporting Cygwin. My policy to support a 
new platform is always the same: first fix *all* issues in master, get a 
working CI, find a core developer responsible to fix all issues specific to 
this platform, and only after that we can start discussing about backporting 
specific changes for that platform.
