Hello,

C99 has shown slow adoption by microsoft compilers on windows. On this platform, the support of va_copy() is recent and started with Visual Studio 2013. Therefore, starting from Python 3.5, PY_VA_COPY can now be mapped directly to the native implementation of va_copy(). Hence, the proposed change might be justified.

Best wishes

Thierry

A similar change was done for Py_MEMCPY(). Would it make sense to put these old macros in a new backward_compat.h header, so maybe one day we can remove them? :-)

Maybe we need at least a comment mentionning when (python version) the macro became an alias.
