- Add CFLAGSFORSHARED variable.  configure sets this to CCSHARED if LDLIBRARY
  is a shared library.
- Remove -fPIC from OPT, it has no business there.
- Change CCSHARED option for Linux to -fPIC.  It should probably be
  -fPIC on a few other platforms as well.
- Don't create silly boot Makefile, create Setup files and run makesetup
  instead.

  is a shared library.
- Add PY_CFLAGS variable (flags used to compile the interpreter)
- clobber now just removes object files, libraries and binaries

This closes SF bug #129759.

examples to flesh it out for the uninitiated.  Here they are.

arguments, which were based on an interim development API.

test_new: new.code() noew takes two more arguments
test_grammer: Add a bunch of test cases for lambda (not really PEP 227 related)

New tests cases for nested scopes.

prevent binding for str from masking use of builtin str in nested
function.

(This is the only case I found in the standard library where a local
shadows a global or builtin.  There may be others, but the regression
test doesn't catch them.)

Track changes to new opcodes.  Add hasfree list that applies to all
ops that use the closure.

Track changes to PyFrame_New() and PyFuntion_New().

The majority of the changes are in the compiler.  The mainloop changes
primarily to implement the new opcodes and to pass a function's
closure to eval_code2().  Frames and functions got new slots to hold
the closure.

Include/compile.h
    Add co_freevars and co_cellvars slots to code objects.
    Update PyCode_New() to take freevars and cellvars as arguments
Include/funcobject.h
    Add func_closure slot to function objects.
    Add GetClosure()/SetClosure() functions (and corresponding
    macros) for getting at the closure.
Include/frameobject.h
    PyFrame_New() now takes a closure.
Include/opcode.h
    Add four new opcodes: MAKE_CLOSURE, LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF,
    STORE_DEREF.
    Remove comment about old requirement for opcodes to fit in 7
    bits.
compile.c
    Implement changes to code objects for co_freevars and co_cellvars.

    Modify symbol table to use st_cur_name (string object for the name
    of the current scope) and st_cur_children (list of nested blocks).
    Also define st_nested, which might more properly be called
    st_cur_nested.  Add several DEF_XXX flags to track def-use
    information for free variables.

    New or modified functions of note:
    com_make_closure(struct compiling *, PyCodeObject *)
        Emit LOAD_CLOSURE opcodes as needed to pass cells for free
        variables into nested scope.
    com_addop_varname(struct compiling *, int, char *)
        Emits opcodes for LOAD_DEREF and STORE_DEREF.
    get_ref_type(struct compiling *, char *name)
        Return NAME_CLOSURE if ref type is FREE or CELL
    symtable_load_symbols(struct compiling *)
        Decides what variables are cell or free based on def-use info.
        Can now raise SyntaxError if nested scopes are mixed with
        exec or from blah import *.
    make_scope_info(PyObject *, PyObject *, int, int)
        Helper functions for symtable scope stack.
    symtable_update_free_vars(struct symtable *)
        After a code block has been analyzed, it must check each of
        its children for free variables that are not defined in the
        block.  If a variable is free in a child and not defined in
        the parent, then it is defined by block the enclosing the
        current one or it is a global.  This does the right logic.
    symtable_add_use() is now a macro for symtable_add_def()
    symtable_assign(struct symtable *, node *)
        Use goto instead of for (;;)

    Fixed bug in symtable where name of keyword argument in function
    call was treated as assignment in the scope of the call site. Ex:
        def f():
            g(a=2) # a was considered a local of f

ceval.c
    eval_code2() now take one more argument, a closure.
    Implement LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF, STORE_DEREF, MAKE_CLOSURE>

    Also: When name error occurs for global variable, report that the
    name was global in the error mesage.

Objects/frameobject.c
    Initialize f_closure to be a tuple containing space for cellvars
    and freevars.  f_closure is NULL if neither are present.
Objects/funcobject.c
    Add support for func_closure.
Python/import.c
    Change the magic number.
Python/marshal.c
    Track changes to code objects.

A cell contains a reference to a single PyObject.  It could be
implemented as a mutable, one-element sequence, but the separate type
has less overhead.

many reasonable requests to keep them around.

Bump version number.

in the docs to indicate the next version before we decided on 1.6.

Adjusted winsound.Beep() description slightly as well.

also normalize checks for syntax errors and delete commented out
definition of verify.

parameters that contained both anonymous tuples and *arg or **arg. Ex:
def f(a, (b, c), *d): pass

Fix the symtable_params() to generate names in the right order for
co_varnames slot of code object.  Consider *arg and **arg before the
"complex" names introduced by anonymous tuples.

test___all__.py: fail silently in check_all if the module can't be imported

use in regression tests where the module might get imported more than once

You can only use mult-line strings in C if each line ends in \.

got broken).  Also added new method .jumpahead(N).  This finally gives us
a semi-decent answer to how Python's RNGs can be used safely and efficiently
in multithreaded programs (although it requires the user to use the new
machinery!).

functionality of, whrandom.py.  Also closes all the "XXX" todos in
random.py.  New frequently-requested functions/methods getstate() and
setstate().  All exported functions are now bound methods of a hidden
instance.  Killed all unintended exports.  Updated the docs.
FRED:  The more I fiddle the docs, the less I understand the exact
intended use of the \var, \code, \method tags.  Please review critically.
GUIDO:  See email.  I updated NEWS as if whrandom were deprecated; I
think it should be.
