    ones suggested by Skip in the bug report.

	asyncore.poll, the select fails with EINTR, which the
	code catches. However, the code fails to clear the
	r/w/e arrays (like poll3 does), which means it acts as
	if every descriptor had received all possible events.

Bug report and patch by Cesar Eduardo Barros

   were originally rfc822-like line continuations.
   Modified version of a patch from Matthias Ralfs.

    characters in strings being passed via XML-RPC.
Fix some typos.

2.2.1 bugfix candidate.

The doc string for cStringIO suggested that str() of a StringIO object
was equivalent to getvalue().  This was never true, so repair the doc
string.  (doctest would have helped here.)

Bug fix candidate for any past versions.

or libraries also look for thread_detach. SGI has thread_create in libc
but complete pthread support only in -lpthread. Fixes #522393.

2.2.1 candidate.Killed by signal 2.

mmap_find_method():  this obtained the string to find via s#, but it
ignored its length, acting as if it were \0-terminated instead.

Someone please run on Linux too (the extended test_mmap works on Windows).

Bugfix candidate.

it is difficult to do without a Mac box to try things out on.  This expands
on what was there only a little bit; hopefully someone with a Mac can work
on this as well!

this closes patch 502080

This closes SF bug #526277.

- reflects the change in type("").__name__ between 2.1 and 2.2.  The
__name__ field is used to find a method to call for particular types.

[ 508779 ] Disable flat namespace on MacOS X

I presume you wanted this on the trunk too, Jack?

2.2.1 candidate.

[ 526039 ] devious code can crash structseqs

Bugfix candidate.

(the types come from different modules on different platforms).

Added tests for pickling these types.

May be a bugfix candidate.

[ 526072 ] pickling os.stat results round II

structseq's constructors can now take "invisible" fields in a dict.
Gave the constructors better error messages.
their __reduce__ method puts these fields in a dict.

(this is all in aid of getting os.stat_result's to pickle portably)

Also fixes

[ 526039 ] devious code can crash structseqs

Thought needed about how much of this counts as a bugfix.  Certainly
#526039 needs to be fixed.

as well.

[ 496873 ] structseqs unpicklable

by adding a __reduce__ method to structseqs.

Will also commit this to the 2.2.1 branch momentarily.

recent versions of LaTeX2e but not support in LaTeX2HTML.

Remove whitespace from the middle of an inline RE example; it was OK for
the typeset formats, but LaTeX2HTML is more touchy about this.

over SEP, ALTSEP and MAXPATHLEN.
Patched up posixmodule.c for MSVC, but unsure what the story is now on
other non-Unixish platforms -- the preprocessor maze has no exit <wink>.

2.2.1 candidate (but not terribly important).

- recognize "SyntaxError"s by the print_file_and_line attribute.
- add the syntaxerror attributes to all exceptions in compile.c.
Fixes #221791

when no arguments are passed

(see patch #514490, by Stefan Schwarzer)

  Modules/
    posixmodule.c

- use SEP,ALTSEP #defines instead of hard coded path separator chars
- use EMX specific variants of chdir2(),getcwd() that support drive letters
- OS/2+EMX spawnv(),spawnve() support
- EMX specific popen[234]() derived from Win32 popen[234]() code

  Modules/
    socketmodule.c

EMX handles sockets like Posix, rather than use native APIs
