+- Issue #25626: Change three zlib functions to accept sizes that fit in
+ Py_ssize_t, but internally cap those sizes to UINT_MAX. This resolves a
+ regression in 3.5 where GzipFile.read() failed to read chunks larger than 2
+ or 4 GiB. The change affects the zlib.Decompress.decompress() max_length
+ parameter, the zlib.decompress() bufsize parameter, and the
+ zlib.Decompress.flush() length parameter.
+
- Issue #25583: Avoid incorrect errors raised by os.makedirs(exist_ok=True)
when the OS gives priority to errors such as EACCES over EEXIST.
