Ensure that a tempfile can be closed any number of times without error.
This wasn't true on Windows.

right, but the tests for whether we are generating PDF are a bit more
readable, and some unnecessary indirection has been removed.

dictionary instead of building a new one, and provide an overridable method
to allow subclasses to catch ADD_INFO records that are not part of the
initial block of ADD_INFO records created by the profiler itself.

to lists of values, giving the contents of all the ADD_INFO records
seen so far.  This is initialized agressively when the log file is
opened, so that whoever is looking at the log reader can always see
the initial data loaded into the data stream.  ADD_INFO events later
in the log file continue to be reported to the application layer as
before.

Add a new method, addinfo(), to the profiler.  This can be used to
insert additional ADD_INFO records into the profiler log.

Fix the tp_flags and tp_name slots on the type objects.

Bump version number

improper time tuples passed to various functions.  Based on comments from
Andreas Jung.

a bunch of them now.

reference-count annotations; this is needed for the typeset forms of the
manuals.

Removes old XXX comment and possible source of long-delays.

And SF patch 473223 -- infinite getattr loop

Wrap select() and poll() calls with try/except for EINTR.  If EINTR is
raised, treat as a response where no fd is ready.

In dispatcher constructor, make sure self.socket is always
initialized.

Use attribute assignment to illustrate __slots__ raising an error

"socket.socket" -- on Windows, "socket.socket" is the wrapper class.
Also added the module name to the SSL type (which is not a new-style
class -- I don't want to mess with it yet).

PyObject_CallMethodObArgs() ---> PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs()

constructor acts just like socket() before.  All three arguments have
a sensible default now; socket() is equivalent to
socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM).

One minor issue: the socket() function and the SocketType had
different doc strings; socket.__doc__ gave the signature,
SocketType.__doc__ gave the methods.  I've merged these for now, but
maybe the list of methods is no longer necessary since it can easily
be recovered through socket.__dict__.keys().  The problem with keeping
it is that the total doc string is a bit long (34 lines -- it scrolls
of a standard tty screen).

Another general issue with the socket module is that it's a big mess.
There's pages and pages of random platform #ifdefs, and the naming
conventions are totally wrong: it uses Py prefixes and CapWords for
static functions.  That's a cleanup for another day...  (Also I think
the big starting comment that summarizes the API can go -- it's a
repeat of the docstring.)

RISCOS/Makefile:
include structseq and weakrefobject;
changes to keep command line length below 2048

RISCOS/Modules/riscosmodule.c:
typos from the stat structseq patch

Include/pyport.h:
don't re-#define __attribute__(__x) on RISC OS as it is already defined in c library

object.h:  Added PyType_CheckExact macro.

typeobject.c, type_new():

+ Use the new macro.
+ Assert that the arguments have the right types rather than do incomplete
  runtime checks "sometimes".
+ If this isn't the 1-argument flavor() of type, and there aren't 3 args
  total, produce a "types() takes 1 or 3 args" msg before
  PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords produces a "takes exactly 3" msg.

+ Change keyword arg name from "x" to "items".  People passing a mapping
  object can stretch their imaginations <wink>.
+ Simplify the docstring text.

+ Squash another potential buffer overrun.
+ Simplify the keyword-arg loop by decrementing the count of keywords
  remaining instead of incrementing Yet Another Variable; also break
  out early if the number of keyword args remaining hits 0.

Since I hit the function's closing curly brace with this patch, that's
enough of this for now <wink>.

we're ensuring that's true during the format parse, get rid of nkwlist.

the format, instead of waiting until after we can overindex it by
mistake.

the va_list until we are sure we have a format string and need to use it;
this avoid premature initialization and having to finalize it several
different places because of error returns.

this routine will report an error now when it didn't before, but, if so,
it's a legitimate error that should never have been suppressed.

dict API everywhere on it instead of sometimes using the slower mapping
API.

The "need" for this was probably removed by an earlier patch that stopped
the loop right before it from passing NULL to a dict lookup routine.
I still haven't convinced myself that the next loop is correct, so am
leaving the next mysterious PyErr_Clear() call in for now.

+ Generally test nkeywords against 0 instead of keywords against NULL
  (saves a little work if an empty keywords dict is passed, and is
  conceptually more on-target regardless).
+ When a call erroneously specifies a keyword argument both by position
  and by keyword name:
    - It was easy to provoke this routine into an internal buffer overrun
      by using a long argument name.  Now uses PyErr_format instead (which
      computes a safe buffer size).
    - Improved the error msg.

+ Got rid of now-redundant dict typecheck.
+ Renamed nkwds to nkwlist.  Now all the "counting" vrbls have names
  related to the things they're counting in an obvious way.

+ Renamed argslen to nargs.
+ Renamed kwlen to nkeywords.  This one was especially confusing because
  kwlen wasn't the length of the kwlist argument, but of the keywords
  argument.
