Larry, in #22120 msg224817, you said:
"Since IIUC there's no code in 3.4 that uses an unsigned integer return converter, I'm not backporting the fix."

Modules/binascii.c does have one use of an unsigned integer return, resulting in the only not-something-new difference between 3.4 and 3.5's Modules/clinic dir.  Is there any reason not to do a quick "hg revert -Cr default Tools/clinic && make clinic && hg commit" on 3.4 to update binascii.c.h?

I would prefer the backport be more selective.  There are other changes (set literals, fix "--converters") in trunk that aren't in 3.4 and I wouldn't want them pulled in willy-nilly.

However, I'd accept this backport if the patch looks minimal and clean.

At this point in 3.4's life cycle, this is likely not worth the effort.
