New submission from Skip Montanaro <s...@pobox.com>:

I was just poking around the distutils documentation and came across the
distutils.mwerkscompiler module.  Surely that can't be useful anymore, can
it?  The doc reads, in its entirety:

    Contains MWerksCompiler, an implementation of the abstract CCompiler
    class for MetroWerks CodeWarrior on the pre-Mac OS X Macintosh. Needs
    work to support CW on Windows or Mac OS X.

So the only place it used to work was on pre-Mac OS X, which Python doesn't
support any longer and "will need work" for Windows or Mac OS X which
presumably nobody has done.  This module should be deprecated in 3.1 and
removed in 3.2.
