and should never return None.  (It only did this for an old version of
HotShot that was trying to still work with a patched Python 2.1.)

Remove the crufty support for Python's that don't have StopIteration;
the HotShot patch for Python 2.1 has not been maintained.

- The log reader now provides a "closed" attribute similar to the
  profiler.
- Both the profiler and log reader now provide a fileno() method.
- Use METH_NOARGS where possible, allowing simpler code in the method
  implementations.

the default range to end at 2**20 (machines are much faster now).
Fixed what was quite a arguably a bug, explaining an old mystery:  the
"!sort" case here contructs what *was* a quadratic-time disaster for
the old quicksort implementation.  But under the current samplesort, it
always ran much faster than *sort (the random case).  This never made
sense.  Turns out it was because !sort was sorting an integer array,
while all the other cases sort floats; and comparing ints goes much
quicker than comparing floats in Python.  After changing !sort to chew
on floats instead, it's now slower than the random sort case, which
makes more sense (but is just a few percent slower; samplesort is
massively less sensitive to "bad patterns" than quicksort).

Can't test this, but looks correct to me.

Removed ^M from some line-ends.

The staticforward define was needed to support certain broken C
compilers (notably SCO ODT 3.0, perhaps early AIX as well) botched the
static keyword when it was used with a forward declaration of a static
initialized structure.  Standard C allows the forward declaration with
static, and we've decided to stop catering to broken C compilers.  (In
fact, we expect that the compilers are all fixed eight years later.)

I'm leaving staticforward and statichere defined in object.h as
static.  This is only for backwards compatibility with C extensions
that might still use it.

XXX I haven't updated the documentation.

This is already removed from Expat 1.95.4, so the problem will not
recur when we update.

defined.  /Really/ closes SF # 580631.

The implementation now stores all the lines of the request in a buffer
and makes a single send() call when the request is finished,
specifically when endheaders() is called.

This appears to improve performance.  The old code called send() for
each line.  The sends are all short, so they caused bad interactions
with the Nagle algorithm and delayed acknowledgements.  In simple
tests, the second packet was delayed by 100s of ms.  The second send was
delayed by the Nagle algorithm, waiting for the ack.  The delayed ack
strategy delays the ack in hopes of piggybacking it on a data packet,
but the server won't send any data until it receives the complete
request.

This change minimizes the problem that Nagle + delayed ack will cause
a problem, although a request large enough to be broken into two
packets will still suffer some delay.  Luckily the MSS is large enough
to accomodate most single packets.
