I'm trying to test python-3.12.0a5 and need to install lxml.
My wheel build for lxml fails with errors like this

I'm using archlinux which has gcc 12.2.1. I tested and lxml will build
with 3.11.2.
I imagine this is part of ongoing changes to the python core, but
perhaps there's some simple workaround.
Anyone know how to get around this problem. I did try rebuilding the
cpython stuff using make, but that also failed.
I seem to always have trouble with lxml (which I know doesn't help).
The cause would seem to be this:
GH-101291: Refactor the `PyLongObject` struct into object header
and PyLongValue struct. (GH-101292)
So it looks to me like cython was affected, and has patched themselves.
It's possible regenerating with a patched cython will clear up the build
problem (something which the lxml project takes pains to tell you that
you don't really want to do :)
