Clarify that the level argument is used to determine whether to
perform absolute or relative imports: 0 is absolute, while a positive number
is the number of parent directories to search relative to the current module..

In str.join, if any of the iterable contains a Unicode object,
str.join will return a Unicode object.

A Type error will be raised if iterable contains values other
than a string or Unicode object.

test_subprocess.test_leaking_fds_on_error() failed when the PATH
environment variable contains a path to an existing file. Fix the
test: ignore also ENOTDIR, not only ENOENT and EACCES.

glibc is deprecating libcrypt in favor of libxcrypt, however python assumes
that crypt.h will always be included. This change makes the header inclusion
explicit when libxcrypt is present on the system.

It should be `urllib2.URLError` instead of just `URLError`.

This test doesn't care about order, the underlying filesystem APIs do not
guarantee directory listings on subsequent calls will be in the same order.

It's more trouble than it's worth, since AppVeyor only checks the HEAD commit of a PR rather than the full diff against the base branch to decide which files changed.

830daae1 added some new GIL-releasing to new_buffersize. This is fine, but it's better to avoid reacquiring the GIL for as long as possible. Also, it should use FILE_(BEGIN|END)_ALLOW_THREADS to avoid having the file closed from under it.

Multiple threads iterating over a file can corrupt the file's internal readahead
buffer resulting in crashes. To fix this, cache buffer state thread-locally for
the duration of a file_iternext call and only update the file's internal state
after reading completes.

No attempt is made to define or provide "reasonable" semantics for iterating
over a file on multiple threads. (Non-crashing) races are still
present. Duplicated, corrupt, and missing data will happen.

This was originally fixed by 6401e567, which
raised an exception from seek() and next() when concurrent operations were
detected. Alas, this simpler solution breaks legitimate use cases such as
capturing the standard streams when multiple threads are logging.

This is more complicated than it should be because we need to preserve the
useful mtime-based regeneration feature that lib2to3.pgen2.driver.load_grammar
has. We only look for the pickled grammar file with pkgutil.get_data and only if
the source file does not exist..

In fileio, there were 3 fstat() calls and one lseek() call that did not
release the GIL during the call. This can cause all threads to hang for
unlimited time when using io.FileIO with inaccessible NFS server.

Same issue seen in fileio exists also in fileobject, fixed in the same
way.
