Core and Builtins ----------------- +- Issue #1878: Remove Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VERSION_TAG from + Py_TPFLAGS_DEFAULT when not building the core. This means 3rd party + extensions do not automatically benefit from the class attribute + cache; they will have to explicitly add Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VERSION_TAG + to their tp_flags field if they care. This is a backwards + compatibility feature; in 3.0, all types will use the cache by + default. + - Keyword arguments can now follow starred arguments. (``f(a, *args, keyword=23)`` is now valid syntax.) -- cgit v0.12
