The Py_UseClassExceptionsFlag flag was added by the commit 035574d.
The commit 757af0e started to use this flag:
+ /* if Python was started with -X, initialize the class exceptions */
+ if (Py_UseClassExceptionsFlag)
+ init_class_exc(dict);
Later followed by commit 98b6246.
The flag was finally deprecated in the commit 3ce0964 in 2000.
All these changes are older than Python 2.0.
In Python 2.7 and 3.6, the flag is not used at all.
I think that it's time to remove it :-)
