We do not provide official support for EOL releases and environments or otherwise provide any kind of extended support for old Python releases.

* Such a fix must not add maintenance burden (e.g. add new logic to `python-build` that has to be kept there indefinitely)

* We do not provide any guarantees from our side that any such fix works or will continue working going forward. It's up to the interested parties to maintain it.
|

* Support is provided on a "best effort" basis: we do not maintain these fixes but won't actively break them, either, and accept any corrections.
