(Ideally, all packages in Python 2.5 will use the relative import
syntax for all their relative import needs.)

Since it's never intended that this script be run by

prefix to begin with.  A consequence is that we shouldn't

The attached patch fixes all the ctypes tests so they pass on amd64.
It also fixes several warnings.  I'm not sure what else to do with the
patch.  Let me know how you want to handle these in the future.

I'm not sure the patch is 100% correct.  You will need to decide what
can be 64 bits and what can't.  I believe
sq_{item,slice,ass_item,ass_slice} all need to use Py_ssize_t.  The
types in ctypes.h may not require all the changes I made.  I don't
know how you want to support older version, so I unconditionally
changed the types to Py_ssize_t.

The patch is also in the ctypes SVN repository now, after small
changes to add compatibility with older Python versions.

PyObject_Unicode().  This problem was originally reported from Coverity
and addresses mail on python-dev "checkin r43015".

This inlines the conversion of the string to unicode and cleans
up/simplifies some code at the end of the PyObject_Unicode().

We really need a complete C API test module for all public APIs
and passing good and bad parameter values.

Will backport.

Remove remarks on size_t problems.

Fix SF bug #1448804 and ad a test to ensure that all subscript operations continue to be handled correctly

Make buildbot slaves automatically fetch bzip2 1.0.3.

SS2 (single-shift 2) escape sequences correctly.

Change test_functions.py so that it can be run multiple time without
failing: Assign a restype to the function in test_intresult, and move
the definition of class POINT to module level so that no new class is
created each time the test is run.

important for the _ssl.vproj build. It calls build_ssl.py which tries to
find a Perl to use. Without "/useenv" Visual Studio is getting a PATH
from somewhere else (presumably from its internal environment
configuration). The result is that build_ssl.py fallsback to its
"well-known" locations for a Perl install.

Fixed a number of potential null-pointer-reference-under-pressure
glitches, based on input from the Coverity analysis tool and Simo
Salminen.
