9d8831c8fe cpython: Drop unrecognized --with-threads configure flag.
The ./configure script prints a warning when passed this flag,
starting with 3.7:

  configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-threads

The reason is that there's no longer such a thing as a build
without threads.

Eliminate the warning, by only passing the flag on the older releases
that accept it.

stdenv: bootstrap darwin with python3
- Replaced python override from the final stdenv, instead we
  propagate our bootstrap python to stage4 and override both
  CF and xnu to use it.

- Removed CF argument from python interpreters, this is redundant
  since it's not overidden anymore.

- Inherit CF from stage4, making it the same as the stdenv.

python: remove _manylinux.py
This will turn manylinux support back on by default.

PIP will now do runtime checks against the compatible glibc version to
determine if the current interpreter is compatible with a given
manylinux specification. However it will not check if any of the
required libraries are present.

The motivation here is that we want to support building python packages
with wheels that require manylinux support. There is no real change for
users of source builds as they are still buildings packages from source.

The real noticeable(?) change is that impure usages (e.g. running `pip
install package`) will install manylinux packages that previously
refused to install.
Previously we did claim that we were not compatible with manylinux and
thus they wouldn't be installed at all.

Now impure users will have basically the same situation as before: If
you require some wheel only package it didn't work before and will not
properly work now. Now the program will fail during runtime vs during
installation time.

I think it is a reasonable trade-off since it allows us to install
manylinux packages with nix expressions and enables tools like
poetry2nix.

This should be a net win for users as it allows wheels, that we
previously couldn't really support, to be used.

81d15948cc python38: fix build on macOS
Python 3.8 fails to build on macOS for two reasons:

* python-3.x-distutils-C++.patch fails to apply cleanly.
* An #include for <util.h> is missing, causing a build failure:

    ./Modules/posixmodule.c:6586:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'openpty' is invalid in C99
        if (openpty(&master_fd, &slave_fd, NULL, NULL, NULL) != 0)
            ^

Use the correct version of python-3.x-distutils-C++.patch, and add a
patch to #include <util.h>.

Merge branch 'master' into staging-next
There ver very many conflicts, basically all due to
name -> pname+version.  Fortunately, almost everything was auto-resolved
by kdiff3, and for now I just fixed up a couple evaluation problems,
as verified by the tarball job.  There might be some fallback to these
conflicts, but I believe it should be minimal.

da295a1206 python2: backport fix for pyc race condition, part 2
Turns out fixing this only in importlib is not sufficient and we
need to backport CPython part of the fix too.

This patch is based on https://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/c16063765d3a
but because the code around is different there are some changes (C-strings
instead of Python objects etc.)

With this patch Tensorflow builds successfully on many-core machine.

46409b5c32 Python: add sitecustomize.py, listen to NIX_PYTHONPATH
This commit adds a Nix-specific module that recursively adds paths that
are on `NIX_PYTHONPATH` to `sys.path`. In order to process possible
`.pth` files `site.addsitedir` is used.

The paths listed in `PYTHONPATH` are added to `sys.path` afterwards, but
they will be added before the entries we add here and thus take
precedence.

The reason for adding support for this environment variable is that we
can set it in a wrapper without breaking support for `PYTHONPATH`.

9db3a5869e python2: backport fix for pyc race condition
This is python bug https://bugs.python.org/issue13146. Fixed since
python 3.4. It makes pyc creation atomic, preventing a race condition.
The patch has been rebased on our deterministic build patch.

It wasn't backported to python 2.7 because there was a complaint about
changed semantics. Since files are now created in a temporary directory
and then moved, symlinks will be overridden. See
https://bugs.python.org/issue17222.

That is an edge-case however. Ubuntu and debian have backported the fix
in 2013 already, making it mainstream enough for us to adopt.

Patching numpy.distutils used to be required for pythonPackages.cython
to build on darwin. It was later accidentally disabled during one of the
refactorings, but that did not break cython. This change reinstantiates
the patch. It still applies, so it should be low maintenance and it can
still be useful.

efbe87f3ef CPython: merge expressions of interpreters
Each time a new major/minor version of CPython was released, a new
expression would be written, typically copied from the previous release.
Often fixes are only made in the current/latest release. By merging the
expressions it's more likely that modifications end up in all versions,
as is likely intended.

This commit introduces one expression for Python 3, and another for 2.7.
These two may also be merged, but it will result in a lot of extra
conditionals making the expression harder to follow.

A common passthru is introduced for CPython and PyPy.

With meson 0.47.0 (or 0.47.1, or git)
things are very wrong re:rpath handling
resulting in at best missing libs but
even corrupt binaries :(.

When we run patchelf it masks the problem
by removing obviously busted paths.
Which is probably why this wasn't noticed immediately.

Unfortunately the binary already
has a long series of paths scribbled
in a space intended for a much smaller string;
in my testing it was something like
lengths were 67 with 300+ written to it.

I think we've reported the relevant issues upstream,
but unfortunately it appears our patches
are what introduces the overwrite/corruption
(by no longer being correct in what they assume)

This doesn't look so bad to fix but it's
not something I can spend more time on
at the moment.

--

Interestingly the overwritten string data
(because it is scribbled past the bounds)
remains in the binary and is why we're suddenly
seeing unexpected references in various builds
-- notably this is is the reason we're
seeing the "extra-utils" breakage
that entirely crippled NixOS on master
(and probably on staging before?).

Fixes #43650.

This reverts commit 305ac4dade.

b11f3bc8e3 cpython: don't use lchmod() on Linux, fix w/musl
upstream issue:
https://bugs.python.org/issue31940

There are two PR's proposed to fix this,
but both seem to be stalling waiting for review.

I previously used what appears to be the favored
of the two approaches[1] to fix this,
with plan of keeping it musl-only until PR was merged.

However, while writing up a commit message
explaining the problem and why it needed fixing...

I investigated a bit and found it increasingly
hard to justify anything other than ...
simply not using lchmod.

Here's what I found:
* lchmod is non-POSIX, seems BSD-only these days
* Functionality of lchmod isn't supported on Linux
  * best scenario on Linux would be an error
* POSIX does provide lchmod-esque functionality
  with fchmodat(), which AFAICT is generally preferred.
* Python intentionally overlooks fchmodat()[2]
  electing instead to use lchmod() behavior
  as a proxy for whether fchmodat() "works".
  I'm not sure I follow their reasoning...
* both glibc and musl provide lchmod impls:
  * glibc returns ENOSYS "not implemented"
  * musl implements lchmod with fchmodat(),
    and so returns EOPNOTSUPP "op not supported"
* Python doesn't expect EOPNOTSUPP from lchmod,
  since it's not valid on BSD's lchmod.
* "configure" doesn't actually check lchmod usefully,
  instead checks for glibc preprocessor defines
  to indicate if the function is just a stub[3];
  somewhat fittingly, if the magic macros are defined
  then the next line of the C source is "choke me",
  causing the compiler to trip, fall, and point
  a finger at whatever is near where it ends up.
  (somewhat amusing, but AFAIK effective way to get an error :P)

I'm leaving out links to threads on mailing lists and such,
but for now I hope I've convinced you
(or to those reading commit history: explained my reasons)
that this is a bit of a mess[4].

And so instead of making a big mess messier,
and with hopes of never thinking about this again,
I propose we simply tell Python "don't use lchmod" on Linux.

[1] https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/4783
[2] 28453feaa8/Lib/os.py (L144)
[3] 28453feaa8/configure (L2198)
[4] Messes happen, no good intention goes unpunished :).

9aa22191cf python*: set thread stack size on musl
Ensure recursion limit is reached before stack overflow.

Python does this for OSX and BSD:
13ff24582c/Python/thread_pthread.h (L22)

Size of 1MB chosen to match value in Alpine:
https://git.alpinelinux.org/cgit/aports/commit/main/python2/APKBUILD?id=2f35283fec8ec451fe5fb477dd32ffdcc0776e89

Manual testing via Alpine's test-stacksize.py crashes on these
previously, and works with these changes.
