I was reading this bit last night and thought it was a typo. In the light of day, I realized it wasn't *technically* a typo, but definitely confusing wording. This PR fixes the confusing sentence.

Settings for :mod:`decimal` internal C extension are now detected by
:program:`configure`. The bundled `libmpdec` library is built in
``Makefile``.

* bpo-45772: socket.socket should be a class instead of a function
Currently `socket.socket` is documented as a function, but it is really
a class (and thus has function-like usage to construct an object). This
correction would ensure that Python projects that are interlinking
Python's documentation can properly locate `socket.socket` as a type.
Remove the --findleaks command line option of regrtest: use the
--fail-env-changed option instead. Since Python 3.7, it was a
deprecated alias to the --fail-env-changed option.
This gains 10% or more in startup time for `python -c pass` on UNIX-ish systems.
The Makefile.pre.in generating code builds on Eric's work for bpo-45020, but the .c file generator is new.
Windows version TBD.

From the autoconf docs *Obsolete Macros* section:
Defined the output variable EXEEXT based on the output of the
compiler, which is now done automatically. Typically set to empty
string if Posix and ‘.exe’ if a DOS variant.
Almost all checks are now cached by AC_CACHE_CHECK().
Common patterns are replaced by helper macros.
Variable names now use naming scheme ``ac_cv_func_$funcname``,
``ac_cv_lib_$library_$funcname``, or ``ac_cv_header_$headername_h``.
``SYS_SELECT_WITH_SYS_TIME`` is no longer used.
``uuid_create`` and ``uuid_enc_be`` are provided by libc on BSD. It is
safe to use ``AC_CHECK_FUNCS`` here.
Caching speeds up ./configure -C from ~ 4s to 2.6s on my system.

- Uniform usage of `test.support.requires_docstrings` instead of a
local check for `-OO`.
- Added `requires_docstrings` to a couple more methods that need it.
- Replaced a few instances of `test.test_pydoc` with `__name__` to allow
for different methods of running just this test file.
- Rewrote `test_server` to run faster and better test the server.
- Removed unused import.
- Removed unused locals.
- Minor whitespace cleanups.
