[New-bugs-announce] [issue38109] Missing constants in Lib/stat.py

[Ronan Lamy]

New submission from Ronan Lamy <ronan.lamy at gmail.com>:

According to the docs, stat should include constants S_IFDOOR, S_IFPORT, S_IFWHT as well as the related S_IS... functions. However, these are only defined in _stat. I know that stat is a bit special (see bpo-11016), but that goes against PEP 399.
