Appveyor build fails for 3.6 backport https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/2359 https://ci.appveyor.com/project/python/cpython/build/3.6.1+.3673 The compile and build errors have nothing to do with the patch. This failure is routine; turning off appveyor for 3.6, until fixed, would reduce noise. I presume this is a workflow issue, but I don't know if Windows experts would see it.

I had not seen that failure before, but it is troubling. For AppVeyor, it looks like we might be able to get around it by using the cache feature (which we should probably do anyway), but if that failure happens routinely otherwise, we may have to completely rethink the approach I've taken in https://bugs.python.org/issue30450
