[issue31601] Availability of utimensat, futimens not checked correctly on macOS

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com> added the comment:

I'd prefer a solution that uses symbols where the are available (weak linking). 

That way users on newer systems can use all functionality available there, without having multiple binaries.

I've done this in the past for older macOS versions, but don't know how involved such patches would be for current versions of CPython.
