I'm somewhat nervous about it nevertheless. In particular, the implementation of Py_DECREF changed from 3.7 to 3.8 to 3.9. 3.7 worked entirely in a header; but 3.8 had a quirky definition of _Py_Dealloc which used _Py_Dealloc_inline but was defined out of order (used before defined). This was somewhat addressed in https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/18361/files; however 3.9 now has another mechanism that defines _Py_Dealloc in Objects/object.c. This isn't a major problem because it has the same implementation as before, but changes like this have the potential to make the launcher binary be version specific. Again, not a deal breaker, but it still makes me nervous. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42260> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
