Fix for the UTF-8 decoder: it will now accept isolated surrogates
(previously it raised an exception which causes round-trips to
fail).

Added new tests for UTF-8 round-trip safety (we rely on UTF-8 for
marshalling Unicode objects, so we better make sure it works for
all Unicode code points, including isolated surrogates).

Bumped the PYC magic in a non-standard way -- please review. This
was needed because the old PYC format used illegal UTF-8 sequences
for isolated high surrogates which now raise an exception.

distutils patch for OS/2.

Make sure we clean up all the temp files craeted for the typeset formats.

This fixes bug #511992.

there because of the NeXT history.

  installations are present, by always unlinking the destination file
  before copying to it.  Without the unlink(), the copied file remains
  owned by its previous UID, causing the subsequent chmod() to fail.

Bugfix candidate, though it may cause changes on platforms where
  file ownership behaves differently.

This uses os.popen3 (if it exists) to ensure that errors from a
non-Python CGI script are logged.

Bugfix candidate.

By default every module is imported in its own namespace, but this can
be changed by defining USE_DYLD_GLOBAL_NAMESPACE. In a future version this
define will be replaced by a runtime setting, but that needs a bit more
thought.

This code is largely based on code and feedback from Steven Majewski,
Marcel Prastawa, Manoj Plakal and other on pythonmac-sig.

[ #510644 ] test_curses segfaults

If we use the *object* *allocator*, we should use the *object* *deallocator*,
not the *raw memory* deallocator (confused yet?).

I think this was what caused segfaults when pymalloc was enabled.

Even if it wasn't the cause, it's still wrong.
