It would be safe, and useful in some cases, to allow creating types whose metaclass has
tp_new=NULL
(i.e. the metaclass can't be instantiated from Python).@Yhg1s, is it OK to backport this to 3.12? (No rush, sorry for bothering you on release day.)
It relaxes a check that newly raises
DeprecationWarning
in 3.12 (orTypeError
from a function that's new in 3.12). It's one line inObjects/typeobject.c
