Bug fix candidate for 2.1 & 2.2.

rexec.

When using a restricted environment, imports of copy will fail with an
AttributeError when trying to access types.CodeType.

Bugfix candidate (all the way back to 1.5.3, but at least 2.1.3 and
2.2.1).

A file-static "threads" dict mapped thread IDs to Windows handles, but
was never referenced, and entries never got removed.  This gets rid of
the YAGNI-dict entirely.
Bugfix candidate.

alignment gimmick.  David Abrahams notes that the standard "long double"
actually requires stricter alignment than "double" on some Tru64 box.
On my box and yours <wink>, it's the same, so no harm done on most
boxes.

Use posixly correct sort args.

Bugfix candidate.

- Use substring search, not re search for user-agent and paths.
- Consider * entry last. Unquote, then requote URLs.
- Treat empty Disallow as "allow everything".
Add test cases. Fixes #523041

bug #521526.

Doc/README is odd; it assigns some copyright to the PSF in 2000, when
I didn't think it existed...

There were never tests for the fact that list() always returns a *new*
list object, even when the argument is a list, while tuple() may
return a reference to the argument when it is a tuple.  Now there are.

This commit doesn't include the cleanup patches for stringobject.c and
unicodeobject.c which are shown separately in the patch manager.  Those
patches will be regenerated and applied in a subsequent commit, so as
to preserve a fallback position (this commit to those files).

Windows: apply normcase() as well as abspath().  (Note: this isn't
needed to make IDLE work, but it's a good idea anyway.)

+ Updated dir() description to match actual 2.2 behavior.

+ Replaced the dir(sys) example with dir(struct), because the former
  was way out of date and is bound to change frequently, while the
  latter is stable.

+ Added a note cautioning that dir() is supplied primarily for
  convenience at an interactive prompt (hoping to discourage its
  use as the foundation of introspective code outside the core).

of the installation and at the start of deinstallation.  Output
(stdout, stderr) of the script (if any) is displayed in the last
screen at installation, or in a simple message box at deinstallation.

sys.argv[1] for the script will contain '-install' at installation
time or '-remove' at deinstallation time.

The installation script runs in an environment (embedded by the
bdist_wininst runtime) where an additional function is available as
builtin:
