I presume that the fix has been merged into the CPython repository (you 
could check).  If so, it should be included when 3.5.1 is released in 
about a month+.

The cleanest way -- in my opinion -- would be to patch your 3.5.0 
installations, making them '3.5.0+'.  For 5 installations,

this would be easiest, but then I would retest and presumably revise and 
redistribute after 3.5.1 is out
