When running code on Python 3.8 that previous was running 3.3, I ran into the issue that the default value for the digestmod parameter of hmac.new() has been changed to backwards-incompatible value. I generally would have expected such a break to show up in https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.8.html#api-and-feature-removals. If not there, somewhere on the 3.8 changelog page.
