[issue9709] test_distutils warning: initfunc exported twice on Windows

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org> added the comment:

The policy for distutils is: no changes, only bug fixes.  We cannot remove a function, even useless.  Deprecating does not seem useful if we aren’t going to remove.  Changing the docstring, the docs or the output of the code is okay.  Therefore, initfunc2.patch is the way to go.  Can you add a test for its behavior?
