Does this need to stay? Should we have a build option to reenable it? Or a comment explaining it?

+1 for dropping it (this is brute force debugging hackery left over from when the modified interpreter was crashing on startup)

What's with the change in this section?

Not sure. Given the comment I expect it wasn't intentional.

Almost certainly the result of a merge glitch somewhere along the line when I was still maintaining the patch out of tree.

This is where we'd trigger the extra initialization step, right?
Also, why not put install_sigs into core_config?

Both of those are sorted out in the next PR.

But for anyone just reading these comments: "install_sigs" becomes the first field in the new config struct for the main interpreter, rather than being needed to get the core runtime going :)

Mostly this adds _PyCoreConfig/_Py_InitializeCore() and reorganizes interpreter initialization code around them. The changes align with PEP 432. The new functions are introduced here as "private" C-API while the PEP is discussed. Regardless of the status of the PEP, the changes here are an improvement to interpreter startup. As such we are making the changes now, but keeping the C-API private.
