+- bpo-30329: imaplib and poplib now catch the Windows socket WSAEINVAL error
+  (code 10022) on shutdown(SHUT_RDWR): An invalid operation was attempted.
+  This error occurs sometimes on SSL connections.

 - bpo-30375: Warnings emitted when compile a regular expression now always
   point to the line in the user code.  Previously they could point into inners
