  Fix:
   * crashes on memory allocation failure found with failmalloc
   * memory leaks found with valgrind
   * compiler warnings in opt mode which would lead to invalid memory reads
   * problem using wrong name in decimal module reported by pychecker

  Update the valgrind suppressions file with new leaks that are small/one-time
  leaks we don't care about (ie, they are too hard to fix).

  TBR=barry
  TESTED=./python -E -tt ./Lib/test/regrtest.py -uall (both debug and opt modes)
    in opt mode:
    valgrind -q --leak-check=yes --suppressions=Misc/valgrind-python.supp \
      ./python -E -tt ./Lib/test/regrtest.py -uall,-bsddb,-compiler \
                          -x test_logging test_ssl test_multiprocessing
    valgrind -q --leak-check=yes --suppressions=Misc/valgrind-python.supp \
      ./python -E -tt ./Lib/test/regrtest.py test_multiprocessing

      LD_PRELOAD=~/local/lib/libfailmalloc.so FAILMALLOC_INTERVAL=$i \
          ./python -c pass
    done

  At least some of these fixes should probably be backported to 2.5.

  Issue #3612: Added some missing basic types in ctypes.wintypes.
........

Since we are closing the fileno anyway, the best is to skip this part.

Now test_multiprocessing should pass on Windows.

I am working on the proper fix, which is to use the custom pickler in connection.send(),
instead of the standard pickle.dumps().

(since that's the default), (2) made all descriptions consistent, (3)
dropped mention of re.LOCALE in most places since it is not recommended.
