Fixed minor bug preventing documentation compilation.

It's odd that gcc on my ibook didn't complain about this.

This adds a --relative option to the bdist_dumb command that defaults
to false; if true, the .tar.gz or .zip will be assembled using relative
paths.

[ 635933 ] make some type attrs writable

but should have been!

News about the above.

Plus a couple of extra tests beyond what's up there.

It hasn't been as carefully reviewed as it perhaps should, so all readers
are encouraged, nay exhorted, to give this a close reading.

There are still a couple of oddities related to assigning to __name__,
but I intend to solicit python-dev's opinions on these.

Mark writes in private email:

  "Modules listed in the registry was a dumb idea.  This whole scheme
  can die.  AFAIK, no one in the world uses it (including win32all
  since the last build)."

- requires modulefinder.py to be on sys.path
- does *not* work for Python.framework (yet), only for static builds

but compare it with an expected string.)

errors, some refactoring to get the name of classic classes, and a
style nit or two.)

non-true values to leak in.  This threw-off equality testing which depends
on the underlying dictionaries having both the same keys and values.

per PEP 291 (although there are currently string methods used).

This patch makes it compatible with 2.2, at least, by detecting
universal newline support.

  Fixed minor typo, suggested by Drew Perttula <drewp@bigasterisk.com>.

[#495695] webbrowser.py: selection of browser

* Lib/webbrowser.py
  Only include graphic browsers in _tryorder if DISPLAY is set. Also,
  included skipstone support, as suggested by Fred in the mentioned bug.

* Misc/NEWS
  Mention fix and skipstone inclusion.

get PEP-252 style objects in stead of old-fashioned objects.
In stead of defining a GetattrHook you declare a class variable getsetlist,
which contains tuples (name, getcode, setcode, docstring).
Only lightly tested: the code still works if you don't inherit PEP252Mixin
and the code works if you inherit it but don't define any getters
or setters. Also, this will not work together with the "poor mans inheritance"
offered by method chains, so the CF module will remain with old-style
objects until PEP253 is supported too.

externally visible difference is that the factory defaults are
now in a plist file in the bundle, in stead of being hard-coded in
the application.

whether they crash or not is not a matter of using a framework or not,
but whether the code is run from an app bundle or not. And that it
_can_ crash (instead of tracing back) is Apple's bug anyway, not ours.

Include all First/Last blocks.

guarantee abs(x%y) < abs(y) in all cases when a float is involved.
math.fmod() should, though, so noted that too.

Bugfix candidate.  Someone should check the LaTeX here first, though.

data it needs doesn't exist in the project.  If it's a huge file,
maybe the test should be changed to be one of the -u thingies.
