Python 3.5 adds a few new features, which affect Stackless. Here are the results of a quick and dirty review of What’s New In Python 3.5:

1. https://bugs.python.org/issue21205: New generator attribute __qualname__. PyGenObject gets two new members: gi_name and gi_qualname.

   Pickling support implemented: a8f3bfa783a9

2. https://bugs.python.org/issue19235: new RecursionError exception

3. https://bugs.python.org/issue24400: PEP 492 - Coroutines with async and await syntax

   As part of the PEP 492 implementation, the tp_reserved slot of PyTypeObject was replaced with a tp_as_async slot. Refer to Coroutine Objects for new types, structures and functions.

   The coroutine type is just a variant of the generator type. Therefore it is possible to reuse the pickling code for generators to enable pickling of coroutines. Implemented with commit e2bf67837ac2.

    A very last step: adapt the msi installer. Since Python 3.5 a new Wix based installer is used. Fortunately it is not too hard to adapt the installer.
