[issue29943] PySlice_GetIndicesEx change broke ABI in 3.5 and 3.6 branches

Nathaniel Smith added the comment:

More collateral damage: apparently the workaround that Pandas used for this bug (#undef'ing PySlice_GetIndicesEx) broke PyPy, so now they need a workaround for the workaround: https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/pull/16192

Recording this here partly as a nudge since IIUC the breaking change is still in the 3.6 tree, and partly for the benefit of future projects that are also trying to work around this.
