As noted on the bug issue, I do not see a compelling reason to introduce this interface change at this very late stage of the 3.7.0 release. Let's target it for 3.8.
Also, note that the "make suspicious" check failed.
I should note that I believe this arose because of the changes for bpo-33738 (#7585) which are trying to make the stable ABI usable again. As I understand it, the change there should have minimal user impact as the stable ABI is obviously not being used with current versions of 3.x.

This PR is purposed for backporting in 3.7. If this change will not be applied to 3.7, What's New will need to be changed.
