This is caused by the changed location of longintrepr. See https://docs.python.org/3.11/whatsnew/3.11.html and https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/79315

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Python 3.11 build and inspect http_parser/parser.c, where compilation fails while building the extension from setup.py. Check the Python 3.11 header-location change described in the linked documentation, then verify that the http-parser wheel builds successfully on Python 3.11 without breaking older supported versions.
