Hi all,

CFFI 1.11.4 has been released, with one critical fix for Windows. It
turns out that Py_LIMITED_API can't be used together with virtualenv,
because virtualenv doesn't copy the necessary PYTHON3.DLL file. Bah.

Maybe one day Py_LIMITED_API will actually be used more widely; when
that occurs, the common tools like virtualenv will support it. For
now I've entirely stopped using this flag on Windows. This is not
worse than <=1.11.2, where the flag was passed but the C extension
module produced would still look for PYTHON35.DLL or PYTHON36.DLL.

As usual, see: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cffi

Thanks again to Alex Gaynor for doing the binary releases quickly
after the source release.


A bientôt,

Armin.
