registers an input file handler for stdin with Tcl and handles Tcl
events until something is available on stdin; it then deletes the
handler and returns from EventHook().

This works with or without GNU readline, and doesn't busy-wait.

It still doesn't work for Mac or Windows :-(

Rationalized the doc strings.

Also simplify the module initialization -- we don't need a __version__
which is set to "$Rev" :-) and we don't need a fatal error when the
initialization fails.

Make sure that no tp_as_numbers->nb_<whatever> function is called
without checking for a NULL pointer.  Marc-Andre Lemburg will love it!
(Except that he's just rewritten all this code for a different
approach to coercions ;-( )

argument was initialized to Py_None, but later checked for NULL.
Consistently use Py_None.

func_defaults and func_doc (alias __doc__) may be assigned to.  For
the first two, there's a type restriction to code object and tuple,
respectively.

tp_as_sequence or tp_as_mapping structure is made without checking it

Also make sure that no use of a function pointer gotten from a
tp_as_sequence or tp_as_mapping structure is made without checking it
for NULL first.

the code here becomes much simpler.  In particular: abs(), divmod(),
pow(), int(), long(), float(), len(), tuple(), list().

A few other cosmetic things, such as properly reindenting slice().

programming style.

Recoded many routines to incorporate better error checking, and/or
better versions of the same function found elsewhere
(e.g. bltinmodule.c or ceval.c).  In particular,
Py_Number_{Int,Long,Float}() now convert from strings, just like the
built-in functions int(), long() and float().

Sequences and mappings are now safe to have NULL function pointers
anywhere in their tp_as_sequence or tp_as_mapping fields.  (A few
places in other files need to be checked in too.)

Renamed PySequence_In() to PySequence_Contains().

old value in a temporary and XDECREF it only after then new value has
been set.  This prevents the (unlikely) case where the destructor of
the member uses the containing object -- it would find it in an
undefined state.
