-From: Geoffrey Thomas <geofft@ldpreload.com>
-Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2025 11:13:40 -0400
-Subject: [PATCH 1/1] configure: add --enable-static-libpython-for-interpreter
-
-This option changes the behavior of --enable-shared to continue to build
-the libpython3.x.so shared library, but not use it for linking the
-python3 interpreter executable. Instead, the executable is linked
-directly against the libpython .o files as it would be with
---disable-shared [in newer versions of Python].
-
-There are two benefits of this change. First, libpython uses
-thread-local storage, which is noticeably slower when used in a loaded
-module instead of in the main program, because the main program can take
-advantage of constant offsets from the thread state pointer but loaded
-modules have to dynamically call a function __tls_get_addr() to
-potentially allocate their thread-local storage area. (There is another
-thread-local storage model for dynamic libraries which mitigates most of
-this performance hit, but it comes at the cost of preventing
-dlopen("libpython3.x.so"), which is a use case we want to preserve.)
-
-Second, this improves the user experience around relocatable Python a
-little bit, in that we don't need to use an $ORIGIN-relative path to
-locate libpython3.x.so, which has some mild benefits around musl (which
-does not support $ORIGIN-relative DT_NEEDED, only $ORIGIN-relative
-DT_RPATH/DT_RUNPATH), users who want to make the interpreter setuid or
-setcap (which prevents processing $ORIGIN), etc.

 ============
 
-Non-Darwin Apple Targets
-------------------------
-
-Apple targets that aren't Darwin/macOS (iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and corresponding
-simulators) are considered alpha quality. The builds may or may not work. The
-builds haven't been widely tested.
-
-Only Python 3.9 is currently supported.
