Replace some tortuous code that was trying to be clever but forgot to
DECREF the key and value, by more longwinded but obviously correct
code.

(Inspired by but not copying the fix from SF patch #475033.)

of the if block where it was before.  The name is only used inside
that if block, but the storage is referenced outside it via the 's'
variable.

(This patch was part of SF patch #474590 -- RISC OS support.)

work to be done, but do not require the HTML to be re-built.

and that the work-around should be restricted to that system.

like findall, but returns an iterator (which returns match objects)
instead of a list of strings/tuples.

This has sat around in a deprecated state for a *long* time!

to os.extsep -- that variable actually didn't exist in that release!

PyArg_UnpackTuple().

As the comments in the module implied, pyclbr was easily confused by
"strange stuff" inside single- (but not triple-) quoted strings.  It
isn't anymore.  Its behavior remains flaky in the presence of nested
functions and classes, though.
Bugfix candidate.

set of names imported (the "public names"), adding a definition of "public
names" that describes the use of __all__.
This closes SF bug #473986.

Flesh out the vague reference to __import__().

STRICT_SYSV_CURSES when compiling curses module on HP/UX. Generalize
access to _flags on systems where WINDOW is opaque. Fixes bugs
#432497, #422265, and the curses parts of #467145 and #473150.

not properly processing numeric IPv4 addresses. Fixes V5.1 part of #472675.

machine. Luckily everyone is asleep, so I didn't have to use the time
machine.

Some escaped newlines had spaces between the backslash and the newline. Also slightly changed the comment on xstat().

Got this to work in MacPython. The code is #ifdef macintosh style (to match the existing #ifdef MS_WINDOWS), but eventually ifdeffing on configure features is probably better.

ThreadingMixIn/TCPServer forgets close (Max Neunhöffer).

This ensures that handle_error() and close_request() are called when
an error occurs in the thread.

(I am not applying the second chunk of the patch, which moved the
finish() call into the finally clause in BaseRequestHandler's __init__
method; that would be a semantic change that I cannot accept at this
point - the data would be sent even if the handler raised an
exception.)

    The C-code in fileobject.readinto(buffer) which parses
    the arguments assumes that size_t is interchangeable
    with int:

	    size_t ntodo, ndone, nnow;

	    if (f->f_fp == NULL)
		    return err_closed();
	    if (!PyArg_Parse(args, "w#", &ptr, &ntodo))
		    return NULL;

    This causes a problem on Alpha / Tru64 / OSF1 v5.1
    where size_t is a long and sizeof(long) != sizeof(int).

    The patch I'm proposing declares ntodo as an int.  An
    alternative might be to redefine w# to expect size_t.

[We can't change w# because there are probably third party modules
relying on it. GvR]

PyArg_UnpackTuple() function (serves as an example and test case).

    Fulton, based on code Jim supplied.

Make convertbuffer() static like the prototype says.  Not used elsewhere.
