Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

I am afraid that importing MAXREPEAT is not the only issue. Short time ago, 
CODESIZE was increased from 2 to 4 on narrow builds (issue1160). This makes 
compiled patterns generated by Lib/sre_compile.py incompatible with old _sre 
module on narrow builds.

I think it is a bad idea to mix a different versions of Python stdlib code and 
corresponded binary extensions. There are other examples when Python and C code 
changed synchronously and Python code depends on new names exposed by C module 
(i.e. 35ef949e85d7, b6ec3b717f7e).
