Yeah, another Python 3.11 alpha release!

The asyncore, asynchat and smtpd modules are back into Python 3.11!
They were removed but the removal has been reverted to respect the PEP
387 process: have two Python versions (3.10 and 3.11) emitting a
DeprecationWarning.

In general, I strongly advice you running your project and its test
suite with "python3 -W default" or PYTHONWARNINGS=default environment
variable to see DeprecationWarning and PendingDeprecationWarning, or
even "python3 -W error" or PYTHONWARNINGS=error to treat warnings as
errors. You can also try the development mode which shows these
warnings, and more, use "python3 -X dev" or PYTHONDEVMODE=1:
