You can find it here: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/lisp/progmodes/python.el?h=emacs-25.3

Make sure to evaluate the changed source *after* you've loaded the
builtin python.el.

I'll try to find time to debug it.

Well really it describes the bad behaviour of the fallback completion.
It just happens that Emacs 25 uses the fallback completion method with
Python2 on Windows.

I do not use Python2 on Windows. Rather, I use Python3 on Windows. And it seems my completion is also "fallback" (which for me reads "suboptimal"). I'd prefer best ;-)
