Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: All relevant changes from the py3k-issue1717 branch have now been merged into the py3k branch (and from there into the 3.0 maintenance branch), in a series of revisions. Here they are, listed in py3k/release30-maint pairs:
r69188, r69189, r69190, r69191, r69192, r69193, r69214, r69215, r69218, r69221, r69224, r69225. The idea to raise TypeError on non-NULL tp_compare was abandoned after Martin pointed out that it would be a binary incompatible change _[1], but Nick Coghlan suggested a DeprecationWarning when tp_compare is non-NULL and tp_richcompare is NULL _[2], and remarked that the warning should also be implemented for Python 2.7 when run with the - 3 option. Still to do before this can be closed: - fix up Doc/extending/newtypes.rst; I think Georg has said he'll take care of this, so once everything else is done I'll just reassign this issue to him and let him get on with it. - add Nick Coghlan's suggested DeprecationWarning. - grep through the sources looking for tp_compare, __cmp__, cmpfunc, PyObject_Cmp, PyObject_Compare and cmp, and check all remaining references are legitimate. - update pybench; there's a separate issue already open for this. (issue 4704), and it looks like Antoine and Marc-André are on the case. - anything else that I've forgotten. Thanks everyone for your help so far, especially Christian for much of the original code and Antoine for code and review.
