in the same code unit. The fix is essentially the same as the fix for a
previous bug identifying 0. and -0.

this patch to py3k.

also noticed and fixed a bug in Rational's forward operators (they were
claiming all instances of numbers.Rational instead of just the concrete types).

answer if the input iterable had a duplicate element
(two calls to toggle() reverse each other).  Borrow
the correct code from sets.py.

The previous change was causing a segfault after multiple calls to Py_Initialize() and Py_Finalize().

Patch #1970 by Antoine Pitrou: Speedup unicode whitespace and linebreak detection. The speedup is about 25% for split() (571 / 457 usec) and 35% (175 / 127 usec )for splitlines()

think.  In particular, neal norwitz has traced an Ubuntu sparc64 crash
to the Lib/test/bsddb/test_basics.py test when opening a db with DB_THREAD.

Let marshal built-up sets and frozensets one element at a time (without creating an intermediate tuple).

Works like PyTuple_SetItem() to build-up values in a brand new frozenset.
Also, PyFrozenSet_New() is now guaranteed to produce a distinct new frozenset.

static PyObject* variables should use PyString_InternFromString() instead of PyObject_FromString() to store a python string in a function level static var.

it's useful outside of rational numbers.

This is my first C code that had to do anything significant. Please be more
careful when looking over it.

Handle that situation where we catch socket.errors.
