+binaries is macOS 10.9; it is still possible to build Python and
+Python installers on older versions of macOS but we not regularly
+test on those systems nor provide binaries for them.

+Starting with 3.9.1, Python fully supports macOS "weaklinking",

+with a deployment target of an earlier macOS system. For 3.9.1 and
+later systems, we provide a "macOS 64-bit universal2 installer"
+variant, currently build on macOS 11 Big Sur with fat binaries
+natively supporting both Apple Silicon (arm64) and Intel-64
+(x86_64) Macs running macOS 10.9 or later.
+
+The legacy "macOS 64-bit Intel installer" variant is expected to
+be retired prior to the end of 3.9.x support.
+
+build-installer.py requires Apple Developer tools, either from the
Command Line Tools package or from a full Xcode installation.
You should use the most recent version of either for the operating
system version in use. (One notable exception: on macOS 10.6,
Snow Leopard, use Xcode 3, not Xcode 4 which was released later
-in the 10.6 support cycle.)

+with recent versions of Python 3.x or 2.7. On older systems,
+due to changes in TLS practices, it may be easier to manually
+download and cache third-party source distributions used by
+build-installer.py rather than have it attempt to automatically
+download them.
