I have tried to keep abreast of everything so the patches are based on
4.7.1.alpha1 there are enough differences that a lot of patches for 4.7
would need rebasing.
So I decided to go straight for the bleeding edge. I am doing some more
work on the "build" patches, I am trying to do something smarter with the
python version number so some change could be applied independently of
this ticket. The module_list,py patch definitely won't apply cleanly on
4.7.rc mainly because of #10334. What's more #11264 and #11236 which are
needed here are merged in 4.7.1.alpha0.
That's all a bit of hassle to start from 4.7.1.alpha, but I would have to
start again if I was starting from 4.7.rc.
