    The extension module will be generated in the same directory as the provided path
    for the generated source, with the same basename (in addition to extension module
    metadata). For example, for the source mydir/parser.c the generated extension
    in a darwin system with python 3.8 will be mydir/parser.cpython-38-darwin.so.

    If *build_dir* is provided, that path will be used as the temporary build directory
    of distutils (this is useful in case you want to use a temporary directory).

    If *library_dir* is provided, that path will be used as the directory for a
    static library of the common parser sources (this is useful in case you are
    creating multiple extensions).

Beginnen Sie am im Bericht gezeigten Einstiegspunkt compile_c_extension und untersuchen Sie den Import von newer_group durch setuptools._distutils.dep_util unter Python 3.12 und 3.14. Reproduzieren Sie den macOS-Fehler in pegen und identifizieren Sie das Kompatibilitätsproblem; als erledigt gilt die Aufgabe, wenn die Kompilierung der Erweiterung des Parsergenerators unter den getesteten Python-Versionen funktioniert.
