Add PyEval_GetNestedScopes() which returns a non-zero value if the
code for the current interpreter frame has CO_NESTED defined.

like the one I just fixed to come back and haunt us.

to configure).

- Add CONFIG_ARGS variable and use it to re-run configure rather than
  using config.status.  This prevents an infinite loop if configure
  dies while re-configuring.

This fixes SF bug #410146 (python 2.1b shelve is broken).

This makes verbose-mode output easier to dig thru, and removes an accidental
dependence on the order of dict.items() (made visible by recent changes to
dictobject.c).

taking a break!)

Also fixed some markup nits.

Add some helpers for supporting PyUNIT-based unit testing.

Patch to make "\" in a character group work properly.

- global stmt in class does not affect free vars in methods

frees.  Note there doesn't seem to be any way to test LocalsToFast(),
because the instructions that trigger it are illegal in nested scopes
with free variables.

Fix allocation strategy for cells that are also formal parameters.
Instead of emitting LOAD_FAST / STORE_DEREF pairs for each parameter,
have the argument handling code in eval_code2() do the right thing.

A side-effect of this change is that cell variables that are also
arguments are listed at the front of co_cellvars in the order they
appear in the argument list.

Closes bug #231439.

and note that it fails when the TZ environment variable is not set.

This closes SF bug #409683.

  This patch was developed primarily to reduce the size of the
  frozen binary.  It is particularly useful when freezing for 'small'
  platforms, such as Palm OS, where you really want to save that
  last miserable byte.

  A limitation of this patch is that it does not provide any feedback
  about the replacements being made.  As the path matching
  is case-sensitive this may lead to unexpected behaviour for DOS
  and Windows people, eg
      > freeze.py -r C:\Python\Lib\=py\ goats.py
  should probably be:
      > freeze.py -r c:\python\lib\=py\ goats.py

Importing it typically fails anyway (no TZ variable defined), so this
is no great loss.
