If we decide to remove this flag, I would like to recommend adding the entry for What's NEWS.
Although this flag was not intended to expose to the public user, this flag was spread out to users who have interests in the multi-core sub interpreter project.

This is also broken on main branch and 3.11 as it won't even compile with this option. See #90988 |

Yes, please. |

@pablogsal, would it be okay to backport this to 3.11? (It already doesn't work on 3.11 currently.) |
|
Yep, I'm ok backporting this 👍 |

Thanks @ericsnowcurrently for the PR 🌮🎉.. I'm working now to backport this PR to: 3.11. |
…-93185) This was added for bpo-40514 (pythongh-84694) to test out a per-interpreter GIL. However, it has since proven unnecessary to keep the experiment in the repo. (It can be done as a branch in a fork like normal.) So here we are removing: * the configure option * the macro * the code enabled by the macro

Part of #95913 Forward port of #93306, which was a backport of #93185, to address #84694 This adds the What's New entry for the removal of the subinterpreter-related env variable, build-time flag, etc. As @ericsnowcurrently was author of the original changes, I added him as a co-author to the commit. This addition to the Python 3.11 What's New document were only made to the Python 3.11 branch during the backport process, and not added to the version in `main`. Forward-porting it ensures the docs retain these additions for the future, rather than being lost in a legacy Python versions, allows it to be be edited as part of #95913 , and avoids merge conflicts with routine back-ports of PRs touching it. I've pulled in the addition exactly as-is with no modifications; any editing will be done in future PRs (and therefore can be reviewed and backported accordingly). The one other such addition is forward-ported in #98344
