Specialise coercion from bytes to char* (and friends) to avoid going through several type checks in the generic "__Pyx_PyObject_AsStringAndSize()" function.

Split uncommon case from unicode/bytes.endswith() implementation to suggest inlining the normal case.

Fix reference leak in the Py2.x __Pyx_ReleaseBuffer() implementation for types with an overridden __releasebuffer__ method.

Closes #1638.

Fix more tests: Correct the source character position of name nodes to improve error reporting (previously reported the character position *behind* the name).

Correct the source character position of name nodes to improve error reporting (previously reported the character position *behind* the name).

Closes #1824.

Repair "range(enum)" iteration in C++ which (rightfully) disallows arbitrary assignments between enum+int.

Revert "Re-enable failure checks for Py3.2 in travis as that version is correctly supported (again)."

This reverts commit 835cf4c1.

The travis test runs seem to be unreliable for some reason.

This fixes #1788.

This fixes #1790.

Add st_birthtime to struct stat

This is available on OS X, FreeBSD and NetBSD. On Linux, the definition
itself will not result in any errors. However, code that does attempt to
st_birthtime under Linux will now fail at C compile time rather than
Cython compile time.
