Doc/dist/dist.tex: avoid uncommenting the verbose environment (by the py2texi tool)

simple cure.

the tim-doctest-merge-24a2 tag on the the tim-doctest-branch branch.
We did development on the branch in case it wouldn't land in time for
2.4a2, but the branch looked good:  Edward's tests passed there, ditto
Python's tests, and ditto the Zope3 tests.  Together, those hit doctest
heavily.

Close handlers and tidy up loggers by removing closed handlers - to avoid problems when run twice (SF #1002537)

unicodedata.east_asian_width().  You can still implement your own
simple width() function using it like this:
    def width(u):
        w = 0
        for c in unicodedata.normalize('NFC', u):
            cwidth = unicodedata.east_asian_width(c)
            if cwidth in ('W', 'F'): w += 2
            else: w += 1
        return w

or broken by basic ctype functions in 4.4BSD descendants.  This
will be fixed in their future development branches but they'll keep
the POSIX-incompatibility for their backward-compatiblities in near
future.

imputils Importer._process_result():
    remove name from modules dict if exec fails.

This is what all the builtin importers do now, new in 2.4.

scripts without modifying either the distutils installation or the
setup.py scripts of packages with which the new commands will be used.

Specifically, an option is added to distutils that allows additional
packages to be searched for command implementations in addition to
distutils.command.  The additional packages can be specified on the
command line or via the installation or personal configuration files
already loaded by distutils.

possible that the callback-less flavors of the ref or proxy could have
been added during GC, so we don't want to replace them.

Will backport to 2.3.
