Sorry, @Mariatta, I could not cleanly backport this to 3.6 due to a conflict.
Please backport using cherry_picker on command line.

NEWS.d is a directory with many files; could the text here be confusing or will people understand what is meant?

I would suggest "is an HTML version of a file built from the contents of the directory tree..." You could even link "file built" to blurb.

Because next/Build contains news files for changes related to building CPython :)
