Python 3.12 includes a fix for `dev_t` being a 64-bit unsigned value rather
than a signed value. This can cause issues in certain issues, where native code
_does_ then assume that it's unsigned. I ran into issues with this when testing
self-compiled Rust extensions for Mercurial.

```
$ python3.9 -c 'import os; print(os.stat(".hg/dirstate").st_dev)'
-1165136122586117506
$ python3.11 -c 'import os; print(os.stat(".hg/dirstate").st_dev)'
-1165136122586117506
$ /usr/bin/stat .hg/dirstate
17281607951123434110 53950 -rw-r--r-- 1 dan wheel 0 107163 "Dec  2 16:11:49
2024" "Dec  2 16:11:49 2024" "Dec  2 16:11:49 2024" "Dec  2 16:11:49 2024"
107520 89 0x800 .hg/dirstate
```

As neither Python 3.12 nor 3.13 are currently available as packages, could you
perhaps backport those patches to the ports?
