+- bpo-29176: getwin() and putwin() functions of the curses module now use
+  :class:`tempfile.TemporaryFile` instead of calling the C ``mkstemp()``
+  function to create a temporary file in a more portable and safer manner.

 - Issue #29100: Fix datetime.fromtimestamp() regression introduced in Python
   3.6.0: check minimum and maximum years.
