It has already been removed, a few hours after it was pushed, since it broke 
all of the 3x buidbots, and would have confused and/or added extra work to 
anyone trying to build or push changes.

On behalf of my fellow release managers, may I suggest that, in the future, if 
anyone feels the urge to check something like this in to the live cpython 
repository, please resist that urge? :)  A patch would be just as amusing 
without the need to use the soft cushion or the comfy chair.

Inquisitorly yours,
