Include limits.h if we have it.

If we have stat.h include it if we don't have sys/stat.h

Include stat.h if needed; different Mac filename compare

CHAR_MAX, use hardcoded -128 and 127.  This may seem strange, unless
you realize that we're talking about signed bytes here!  Bytes are
always 8 bits and 2's complement.  CHAR_MIN and CHAR_MAX are
properties of the char data type, which is guaranteed to hold at least
8 bits anyway.

Otherwise you'd get failing tests on platforms where unsigned char is
the default (e.g. AIX).

Thanks, Vladimir Marangozov, for finding this nit!

what the dozen+ subprojects are for, which are and aren't
expected to build out of the box, and what else is needed to get
them all to build.  Also explained that Alpha configurations
don't refer to pre-beta, but to the Alpha processor!  That's
baffled me for years <0.7 wink>.

Test case for the pty module.

- fixed parser flag propagation (of all stupid bugs...)

more suitable.

   if the multiline flag isn't given.

we want to have GC enabled in the beta.

attempting a recursive import and causing a fatal error.

Someone who knows what they are doing needs to replace this with something
that makes sense -- I'm not running Windows right now.

This'll work fine with 2.0 or 1.5.2, but is less than ideal for
1.6a1/a2.  But the code to accomodate 1.6a1/a2 was released with
Distutils 0.9, so it can go away now.

Regression test for the new winreg.py module.

[Could a Windows person someone please review this?]

- removed evil tabs from sre_parse and sre_compile

suggestion from Frank for an example and further explanation.

Change a 1.6 version number used in a an example in a comment to 2.0.

Fix PC/msvcrtmodule.c and PC/winreg.c for Win64. Basically:

- sizeof(HKEY) > sizeof(long) on Win64, so use PyLong_FromVoidPtr()
instead of PyInt_FromLong() to return HKEY values on Win64

- Check for string overflow of an arbitrary registry value (I know
that ensuring that a registry value does not overflow 2**31 characters
seems ridiculous but it is *possible*).

Closes SourceForge patch #100517.

also, fix type (not caught by Rob Hooft, but could have been :-)
