tp_traverse handlers. (Tim made me do it. ;)

decrementing the refcount of variables that might be accessed as a
result of calling Python

- point out the importance of reassigning data members before
  assigning thier values

- correct my missconception about return values from visitprocs. Sigh.

- mention the labor saving Py_VISIT and Py_CLEAR macros.

- Fixed the display of tests in verbose output
- Allow setUp and tearDown functions to be provided for DocTestSuites.

  by the locals() call in the context constructor.

* Remove unnecessary properties for int, exp, and sign which duplicated
  information returned by as_tuple().

* Context.create_decimal can take a zero default just like Decimal().
* Fix typo in comment.

[ 984722 ] Py_BuildValue loses reference counts on error

I'm ever-so-slightly uneasy at the amount of work this can do with an
exception pending, but I don't think that this can result in anything
more serious than a strange error message.

  the documented behavior: the function passed to the onerror()
  handler can now also be os.listdir.

[I could've sworn I checked this in, but apparently I didn't, or it
got lost???]

put everything in the tuple in caps to use str.upper() instead of str.lower().

expected to write their own.  A NULL "object" must not be passed to
the visit callback.  A non-zero return from a visit proc isn't
necessarily an error return (and it doesn't matter to the tp_traverse
code *what* it might signify, their only job is to return it).

module that is removed for testing "import" lines.  Originally deleted the
entry from sys.modules and then just let other code that needed it to import it
again.  Problem with this solution is that it lead to code that had already
imported the module in question to have their own reference to a new copy of
the module in question that new code couldn't reach.  This lead to a failure in
test_strptime since it monkey-patched the 'time' module it had a reference to
while _strptime had its own reference to another copy of 'time' from being
imported by test___all__ that it was using for a calculation.

Also moved the testing code out of the PthFile class and into the actual test
class.  This was to stop using 'assert' which is useless with a -O execution.

URLs will seemingly succeed to read a URL that points to a file whose
permissions you do not have to read.

Backport candidate once everyone agrees with the wording.

a non-standard protocol and on a lower port than the tcp/udp entries,
which breaks the assumption that there will only be one service by a
given name on a given port when no protocol is specified.

Previous versions of this code have had other problems as a result of
different service definitions amongst common platforms.  As this platform
has an extra, unexpected, service entry, I've special cased the platform
rather than re-order the list of services checked to highlight the pitfall.
