C API Changes
=============
-* :c:func:`PyErr_SetExcInfo()` no longer uses the ``type`` and ``traceback``
- arguments, the interpreter now derives those values from the exception
- instance (the ``value`` argument). The function still steals references
- of all three arguments.
- (Contributed by Irit Katriel in :issue:`45711`.)
-
-* :c:func:`PyErr_GetExcInfo()` now derives the ``type`` and ``traceback``
- fields of the result from the exception instance (the ``value`` field).
- (Contributed by Irit Katriel in :issue:`45711`.)
-
-* :c:type:`_frozen` has a new ``is_package`` field to indicate whether
- or not the frozen module is a package. Previously, a negative value
- in the ``size`` field was the indicator. Now only non-negative values
- be used for ``size``.
- (Contributed by Kumar Aditya in :issue:`46608`.)
-
-* :c:func:`_PyFrameEvalFunction` now takes ``_PyInterpreterFrame*``
- as its second parameter, instead of ``PyFrameObject*``.
- See :pep:`523` for more details of how to use this function pointer type.
-
-* :c:func:`PyCode_New` and :c:func:`PyCode_NewWithPosOnlyArgs` now take
- an additional ``exception_table`` argument.
- Using these functions should be avoided, if at all possible.
- To get a custom code object: create a code object using the compiler,
- then get a modified version with the ``replace`` method.
-
-* :c:type:`PyCodeObject` no longer has a ``co_code`` field. Instead,
- use ``PyObject_GetAttrString(code_object, "co_code")`` or
- :c:func:`PyCode_GetCode` to get the underlying bytes object.
- (Contributed by Brandt Bucher in :issue:`46841` and Ken Jin in :gh:`92154`.)

* The old trashcan macros (``Py_TRASHCAN_SAFE_BEGIN``/``Py_TRASHCAN_SAFE_END``)
are now deprecated. They should be replaced by the new macros
``Py_TRASHCAN_BEGIN`` and ``Py_TRASHCAN_END``.
