Python installation is moved the applets become invalid. As the
binary distribution is installed in a different place than where it was
created we need to fix up the #! lines.

that was used to start the thread.  This is useful to track down the
source of the problem when there is no traceback, as can happen when a
daemon thread gets to run after Python is finialized (a new kind of
event, somehow this is now possible due to changes in Py_Finalize()).

throughput-sensitive methods are grabbed from the underlying _socket.socket

[ 708901 ] Lineno calculation sometimes broken

A one line patch to compile.c and a rather-more-than-one-line patch

Possibly a backport candidate -- tho' lnotab is less used in 2.2...

return values are floats.

Raise a ValueError when there is data that was not covered in the format string.  Done to match behavior of pre-existing C-based strptime implementations.

tmpnam() appears essentially useless on Windows, and it finally broke
the test for Irmen de Jong.  Read the long new comment in test_tmpnam()
for details.  Since the MS implementation is insane, it might be good
if we supplied a different implementation.

Bugfix candidate.

a brief example where bottom-up walking is essential.

* call tearDown when Setup is called
* shutil.rmtree the root of the created directory instead of just the leaf
  directory
* set the LANGUAGE environment variable to what it was originally and not
  assume 'en'.

  to use LASTMARK_SAVE()/LASTMARK_RESTORE(), based on the discussion
  in patch #712900.

- Cleaned up LASTMARK_SAVE()/LASTMARK_RESTORE() usage, based on the
  established rules.

- Moved the upper part of the just commited patch (relative to bug #725106)
  to outside the for() loop of BRANCH OP. There's no need to mark_save()
  in every loop iteration.
