Historical Note
===============
While this original PEP was withdrawn, a variant of this feature
was eventually implemented for Python 3.8 in https://bugs.python.org/issue33499
Several of the issues and concerns originally raised in this PEP were resolved
by other changes in the intervening years:
- the introduction of isolated mode to handle potential security concerns
- the switch to ``importlib``, a fully import-hook based import system implementation
- PEP 3147's change in the bytecode cache layout to use ``__pycache__``
subdirectories, including the ``source_to_cache(path)`` and
``cache_to_source(path)`` APIs that allow the interpreter to automatically
handle the redirection to a separate cache directory
