references to an object before calling registered callbacks).

Change last uses of verify() to self.assert_().

                   before calling any callbacks.  This is important
                   since the callback objects only look at themselves
                   to determine that they are invalide.  This change
                   avoids a segfault when callbacks use a different
                   reference to an object in the process of being
                   deallocated.

This fixes SF bug #415660.

(with modification of existing dict elements!).

This is part of SF patch #409864: lazy fix for Pings bizarre scoping
crash.

The adaptation I made to Michael's patch was to change the error
handling to avoid masking other errors (moving the specific error
message to inside test_dict_inner()), and to insert a test for
dict==NULL at the start.

now raises NameError instead of UnboundLocalError, because the var in
question is definitely not local.  (This affects test_scope.py)

Also update the recent fix by Ping using get_func_name().  Replace
tests of get_func_name() return value with call to get_func_desc() to
match all the other uses.

Wrap some long lines and fix some markup nits.

   Calling an unbound method on a C extension class without providing
   an instance can yield a segfault.  Try "Exception.__init__()" or
   "ValueError.__init__()".

   This is a simple fix. The error-reporting bits in call_method
   mistakenly treat the misleadingly-named variable "func" as a
   function, when in fact it is a method.

   If we let get_func_name take care of the work, all is fine.

- Removed the subsection numbering in section B (each time a new
  license is inserted in the front, the others have to be renumbered).

- Changed the words in the intro to avoid implying that 1.6.1 is
  GPL-compatible.

Fixes SF bug #405427.
If an http response has a bogus return code, e.g. 400.100, raise
BadStatusLine.

Turn reference to the cmd module into a hyperlink.

    Tools/idle/idlelib link doesn't cause an infinite loop -- aack!)

    (such as the exceptions in _weakref and _locale!)

Restore Helper.__repr__ for now.

Make synopsis() load modules as '__temp__' so they don't clobber anything.
Change "constants" section to "data" section.
Don't show __builtins__ or __doc__ in "data" section.
For Bob Weiner: don't boldface text in Emacs shells or dumb terminals.
Remove Helper.__repr__ (it really belongs in site.py, and should be                 guarded by a check for len(inspect.stack) <= 2).

Make getmodule() on a module return the module itself.

fixes bug #414940, and redoes the fix for #129417 in a different way.
It also fixes a number of other problems with locale-specific formatting:
If there is leading or trailing spaces, then no grouping should be applied
in the spaces, and the total length of the string should not be changed
due to grouping.
Also added test case which works only if the en_US locale is available.

this version avoids having to build a separate authenticated connection
to push the update-docs.sh script to SF.

something out of this documentation release as well.  ;-)

                value for the 'using' parameter of the get() function
                or the BROWSER environment variable, if the thing
                passed in is a path (as seems to be the case with KDE)
                instead of a short name, examine the available
                controllers to see if we can synthesize one based on a
                pre-registered controller that shares the same base
                name.

get():  If the user specifies a browser we don't know about, use
        _synthesize() to attempt to create a usable controller.

Some small adjustments were needed in some of the browser classes to
support this.

Otherwise, continue/break will attempt to affect the wrong loop.

A few more fiddles to get the SET_LINENOs consistent across compilers.

Always emit a SET_LINENO 0 at the beginning of the module.  The
builtin compiler does this, and it's much easier to compare bytecode
generated by the two compilers if they both do.

Move the SET_LINENO inside the FOR_LOOP block for list
comprehensions.  Also for compat. with builtin compiler.
