The bz2 codec isn't supported any more. I've also commented out several codecs which were removed in the past.

  Fix for feature request #1528 Add os.fchmod
  Georg Brandl has added fchmod() and fchown(). I've contributed lchown but I'm not able to test it on Linux. However it should be available on Mac and some other flavors of Unix.
  I've made a quick test of fchmod() and fchown() on my system. They are working as expected.

  Issue #1402: PyInterpreterState_Clear() may still invoke user code
  (in deallocation of running threads, for example), so the PyGILState_Release()
  function must still be functional.
  On the other hand, _PyGILState_Fini() only frees memory, and can be called later.

  Backport candidate, but only after some experts comment on it.

Warning required when calling register() on an ABCMeta subclass.

Multiple reinitializations of Python 3.0 failed on a system without a hardcoded default fs encoding. The patch makes sure that the default fs encoding is freed and reset to NULL on e.g. Linux.
I've also taken the liberty to increase the debugging in Objects/object.c:_Py_ForgetReference(). The method is used to validate the reference chain.
Reinitialization still fails in the 3rd round of my test suite:
* ob
object  : <refcnt 0 at 0x821c840>
type    : str
refcount: 0
address : 0x821c840
* op->_ob_prev->_ob_next
object  : <refcnt 0 at 0x821c840>
type    : str
refcount: 0
address : 0x821c840
* op->_ob_next->_ob_prev
object  : bytearray(b'')
type    : bytearray
refcount: 1
address : 0x826b838
Fatal Python error: UNREF invalid object

Before the patch a lot of internal types weren't available in the header files. The patch exposes the new iterators, views and some other types to all C modules. I've also renamed some of the types and tp_names.

The changes to PyMethod_New and the removal of unbound methods breaks ctypes' COMError on Windows. This patch doesn't address the problem but re-enables the import of _ctypes until somebody has time to fix it right. I've no time to dig into it. Also see http://bugs.python.org/issue1505

Removed the API to create unbound methods and simplified the API for bound methods. The signature is PyMethod_New(func, instance).
Also removed im_class and renamed im_self to __self__ and im_func to __func__. im_class can be substituted with method.__self__.__class__.
I've also updated some parts of the documenation.
