the standard library.  There are still a few cases of it in Demo and
Tools, but that's fine for now.  These should eventually get cleaned
up.  mimetools still has an import of rfc822, but mimetools itself
should go away.

Added the encoding, errors, line_buffering attribute to io.StringIO
make more compatible with TextIOWrapper's API.

I don't have any win32 machine in my reach. So, I can't test this.

in PyNumberMethods.

Correct the exported symbol for extension modules built by distutils
