Nick Coghlan added the comment: Hmm, I just noticed an interesting issue here in drafting the 2.7 backport: as near as I can tell, these aren't tested, so other implementations that failed to provide them would pass the 2.7 and 3.3 test suites. -- Added file:

Nick Coghlan added the comment: Note that in 2.7, these docs should have a :versionadded: 2.4 marker, while in 3.3 and 3.4, they shouldn't have a version added marker at all. These functions should also get an entry in the 3.4 What's New, even though they're not actually new. --
