Will backport to 2.3.

for people using floor(), ceil() and modf().

Clarifed that os.environ is captured once; emphasized that it's better
to assign to os.environ than to call putenv() directly (the putenv()
docs said so, but the environ docs didn't).

Major rewrite of the math module docs.  Slapped in "radians" where
appropriate; grouped the functions into reasonable categories; supplied
many more words to address common confusions about some of the subtler
issues.

fixes bug #996359.

must be literally contained here, because it is still possible to
install this distutils in older Python versions.

with umlauts in the author argument and others.

Fixes sf # 993943.

Will backport to release23-maint.

BTW: Shouldn't it read PY_LONG_LONG instead of 'long long' ?

The script was originally used to create the initial set of
codecs (and these were (c) CNRI). While the script itself still
is (c) CNRI, the output certainly isn't anymore.

discussed recently in python-dev:

In _locale module:

- bind_textdomain_codeset() binding

In gettext module:

- bind_textdomain_codeset() function
- lgettext(), lngettext(), ldgettext(), ldngettext(),
  which return translated strings encoded in
  preferred system encoding, if
  bind_textdomain_codeset() was not used.
- Added equivalent functionality in translate()
  function and catalog classes.

Every change was also documented.

Rewrote Py_RETURN_{NONE, TRUE, FALSE} to expand to comma expressions
rather than "do {} while(0)" thingies.  The OP complained because he
likes using MS /W4 sometimes, and then all his uses of these things
generate nuisance warnings about testing a constant expression (in
the "while(0)" part).  Comma expressions don't have this problem
(although it's a lucky accident that comma expressions suffice for these
macros!).

Removes CVS keywords from this binary file, so that test_tarfile passes
regardless of whether Python is checked out with -kk.

results when byte-code compilation is requested (in particular, make
sure that package data doesn't get a bogus byte-code listing
generated)
