(1)
Combines the code paths for MAKE_FUNCTION and MAKE_CLOSURE.
Fixes a crash where functions with closures and either annotations or
keyword-only arguments result in MAKE_CLOSURE, but only
MAKE_FUNCTION has the code to handle annotations or keyword-only
arguments.
Includes enough tests to trigger the bug.

(2)
Change peepholer to not bail in the presence of EXTENDED_ARG +
MAKE_FUNCTION.
Enforce the natural 16-bit limit of annotations in compile.c.

Also update Misc/NEWS with the "input = raw_input" change.

an object is listed in an 'except' clause.

Remove the last few uses of bool/true/false.

The problem with using random.random is that several modules and tests do
"from random in random" which confuses pickle.whichmodule().

test_getargs2 and test_email.

Should func_new be extended to support a "kwdefaults" arg?

The fix is in neither, but in pickle.py where a loop over sys.modules.items()
could modify sys.modules, occasionally.

  Variation of patch # 1624059 to speed up checking if an object is a subclass
  of some of the common builtin types.

  Use a bit in tp_flags for each common builtin type.  Check the bit
  to determine if any instance is a subclass of these common types.
  The check avoids a function call and O(n) search of the base classes.
  The check is done in the various Py*_Check macros rather than calling
  PyType_IsSubtype().

  All the bits are set in tp_flags when the type is declared
  in the Objects/*object.c files because PyType_Ready() is not called
  for all the types.  Should PyType_Ready() be called for all types?
  If so and the change is made, the changes to the Objects/*object.c files
  can be reverted (remove setting the tp_flags).  Objects/typeobject.c
  would also have to be modified to add conditions
  for Py*_CheckExact() in addition to each the PyType_IsSubtype check.

  Update the encoding package's search function to use absolute imports when

  One could use an explicit value for __path__ when making the call to __import__
  to force the exact location searched for encodings.  This would give the most
  strict search path possible if one is worried about malicious code being
  imported.  The unfortunate side-effect of that is that if __path__ was modified
  on 'encodings' on purpose in a safe way it would not be picked up in future
  __import__ calls.
