no_setuptools.patch [PATCH] Remove code relying on Python distutils
This was just used to check if Sphinx supports concurrency, but
Sphinx is also barely faster with 1 core vs 32, so it hardly matters.

CVE-2024-50383.patch [PATCH] Add more value barriers to avoid compiler induced side channels

The paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/2410.13489 claims that on specific
architectures Clang and GCC may introduce jumps here. The donna128
issues only affect 32-bit processors, which explains why we would not
see it in the x86-64 valgrind runs.

The GHASH leak would seem to be generic but the authors only observed
it on RISC-V.
