  Remove startup firewall message.  That is handled by an error dialog
  whenever a connection cannot be formed.  Also, the Idle version number
  is already in the About Idle dialog.  Now, the startup is clean looking

isSequenceType(), isMappingType(), and isNumberType() in favor
of using abstract base classes.  Also, remove repeat() and irepeat()
in favor of mul() and imul().

After the buildbots have had a go at this.  Will backport to Py3.0.1.
For Py2.7, will just mark as deprecated.

  fix building the core with --disable-unicode

  I changed some bytearray methods to use strings instead of unicode like bytes_repr
  Also, bytearray.fromhex() can take strings as well as unicode
........

on compilers that support it (notably: gcc, SunPro, icc), the bytecode
evaluation loop is compiled with a new dispatch mechanism which gives
speedups of up to 20%, depending on the system, on various benchmarks.
