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.
Originally introduced in 8970a9c and 1531b5e, these patches were lost in
efbe87f when the CPython version files were merged, likely due to
CPython 3.7 not needing them anymore. These patches should remain
in-tree until CPython 3.5 and 3.6 support is dropped completely.
Found with the diffoscope ( https://diffoscope.org/ ).
The upstream patch for distutils does not apply cleanly to Python
3.7.3's sources. (The patch applies cleanly to Python 3.7.2's sources,
but nixpkgs commit 0ddae82e6a upgraded
Python to 3.7.3.) Fix the patch to make python37 build on macOS.
The wrapper is not needed because the runpath is already set correctly,
and LD_LIBRARY_PATH was breaking child processes linked against
different libc versions.

These interpreters are prebuilt by upstream and patched using patchelf.
They are primarily added for testing purposes and development on the
non-prebuilt PyPy interpreters as it can speed up translation
significantly.
Drop `python.majorVersion`. For Python language version, use `python.pythonVersion`.
For implementation version, use `python.sourceVersion`.
Some expressions were broken. Those that were identified were fixed.
fixup major
This changeset allows for cross-compilation of Python packages. Packages
built with buildPythonPackage are not allowed to refer to the build
machine. Executables that have shebangs will refer to the host.
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.
