and a couple of functions that were missed in the previous batches. Not
terribly tested, but very carefully scrutinized, three times.

All these were found by the little findkrc.py that I posted to python-dev,
which means there might be more lurking. Cases such as this:

long
func(a, b)
	long a;
	long b; /* flagword */
{

and other cases where the last ; in the argument list isn't followed by a
newline and an opening curly bracket. Regexps to catch all are welcome, of
course ;)

MacPython on MacOSX DP4 gets started in the wrong directory. The workaround (ifdeffed by USE_ARGV0_CHDIR) is to do a chdir() to the folder part of our executable name.

use "cvs diff -b" to verify.

New code will see the macros and therefore use the PyXXX_Size()
APIs instead.

distutils patches, which I'll leave to the distutils maintainers.

Tip: review the patch like this:

grep "^[\!+-] " <patchfile>

To get a quick and easy way to review the actual changes. Most of the
changes are single-line ones, anyway.

SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)

I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

  (patch #100912)

unicodeobject.c(735) :
    error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '}'

The UTF-8 decoder is still buggy (i.e. it doesn't pass Markus Kuhn's
stress test), mainly due to the following construct:

    #define UTF8_ERROR(details)  do {                       \
        if (utf8_decoding_error(&s, &p, errors, details))   \
            goto onError;                                   \
        continue;                                           \
    } while (0)

(The "continue" statement is supposed to exit from the outer loop,
but of course, it doesn't.  Indeed, this is a marvelous example of
the dangers of the C programming language and especially of the C
preprocessor.)

comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").

There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)

genuine bug, so I checked it in separately.

stead of defining lots of function prototypes in each module.
