returns (0, 0, 1) instead of (0, -1, 1), and slice(None, 10, -1).indices(10)
returns (9, 9, -1) instead of (9, 10, -1).

Make bin() implementation parallel oct() and hex() so that int/long subclasses can override or so that other classes can support.

Bug #3136: fileConfig()'s disabling of old loggers is now conditional via an optional disable_existing_loggers parameter, but the default value is such that the old behaviour is preserved.

Attempt RLock creation prior to test execution on Linux, if it raises the OSError in issue 3111, skip the test suite

Needed to let the tests pass

skip test_multiprocessing when /dev/shm doesn't exist. This seems to be a chroot problem in the buildbot env.

OverflowError incorrectly on this platform, presumably as a result of
the libm setting errno = ERANGE for this call.

(See issue 3056 -- we're close to a resolution but need unittests.)

Bug #3126: StreamHandler and FileHandler check before calling "flush" and "close" that the stream object has these, using hasattr (thanks to bobf for the patch).

reduce the test_multiprocessing load to ones that shouldn't hang. These will be reenabled gradually as we find the problems.

An instance of a weakref subclass can have attributes.
If such a weakref holds the only strong reference to the object,
deleting the weakref will delete the object. In this case,
the callback must not be called, because the ref object is being deleted!
