Sorry, something went wrong.
…3 SDK (pythonGH-97944) The macOS 13 SDK includes support for the `mkfifoat` and `mknodat` system calls. Using the `dir_fd` option with either `os.mkfifo` or `os.mknod` could result in a segfault if cpython is built with the macOS 13 SDK but run on an earlier version of macOS. Prevent this by adding runtime support for detection of these system calls ("weaklinking") as is done for other newer syscalls on macOS.
