I see the same thing. Effectively, "deprecation warning" and
"future-deprecation notice" are just different spellings of "yelling at
me unconditionally for using code that I can't do anything about".

Why is Python 3.5 relevant?

I'm using homebrew-installed gcc and homebrew-installed perl. gcc
doesn't understand the option -iwithsysroot, and apparently whatever it
points to is not needed.
Note that in configure.ac the logic is like this:
if test \! -f "$perl_archlibexp/CORE/perl.h" ; then
if test -f "$PG_SYSROOT$perl_archlibexp/CORE/perl.h" ; then
perl_includespec="-iwithsysroot $perl_archlibexp/CORE"
fi
fi
So it checks first if it can find the needed file without the sysroot
business.
