This issue covers various changes for the macOS installers provided via python.org for 3.7.0.

  • Provide a provisional new installer variant for macOS 10.9 and later systems with 64-bit (x86_64) architecture only. Apple has made it known that future versions of macOS will only fully support 64-bit executables and some other third-party software suppliers have chosen 10.9 as their oldest supported system.

  • Support Tcl/Tk 8.6 with the 10.9 installer variant.

  • Upgrade OpenSSL to 1.1.0g and SQLite to 3.22.0.

  • The compiler name used for the interpreter build and for modules built with Distutils / pip is now gcc rather than gcc-4.2. And extension module builds will no longer try to force use of an old SDK if present.

Thanks for the look. Building an installer for review isn't worth attempting; what matters is whether it works for me when I need to build release installers.
