-- someone tried to pass in sys.maxint and got bitten by the bogus
calculations.

on BeOS or Windows.

caller (in import.c) will test for errors and take appropriate action.

the buffer used to hold the array -- for dangerous low-level I/O.

Ahlstrom:

Arraymodule.c has static functions H_getitem and h_getitem, and a
few others which differ only in case.  These are a problem on
Windows 3.1, since a case-sensitive link causes Winsock to fail
(hey, it's not my fault).  Please convert H_etc to HH_etc etc.

Not really checked, but didn't fail any tests either...

recent changes in the struct module).

from emacs as per recomendation from GvR

Setup.in: clarified Tk comments somewhat.
structmodule.c: use memcpy() instead of double precision assignment.

Note addition of gethostbyaddr() and improved repr() for sockets,
renaming of md5.md5() to md5.new(), and fixing of leaks in threads.

* posixmodule.c: don't prototype getcwd() -- it's not portable...
* mappingobject.c: double-check validity of last_name_char in
  dict{lookup,insert,remove}.
* arraymodule.c: need memmove only for non-STDC Suns.
* Makefile: comment out HTML_LIBS and XT_USE by default
* pythonmain.c: don't prototype getopt() -- it's not standardized
* socketmodule.c: cast flags arg to {get,set}sockopt() and addrbuf arg to
  recvfrom() to (ANY*).
* pythonrun.c (initsigs): fix prototype, make it static
* intobject.c (LONG_BIT): only #define it if not already defined
* classobject.[ch]: remove all references to unused instance_convert()
* mappingobject.c (getmappingsize): Don't return NULL in int function.

* {tuple,list,mapping,array}object.c: call printobject with 0 for flags
* compile.c (parsestr): use quote instead of '\'' at one crucial point
* arraymodule.c (array_getattr): Added __members__ attribute

  careful about these.
* arraymodule.c: added 8 byte swap; added 'i' format character; added
  reverse() method; rename read/write to fromfile/tofile.
* config.c: Set version to 0.9.9++.
* rotormodule.c (r_rand): declare k1..k5 as unsigned longs so the shifts
  will have a well-defined effect independent of word size.
* bltinmodule.c: renamed bagof() to filter().

  pythonrun.c: added static forward declarations
* pythonrun.h, ceval.h, longobject.h, node.h: removed declarations of
  static routines

  image objects, and lots of new methods.
* Added counting of allocations and deallocations of builtin types if
  COUNT_ALLOCS is defined.  Had to move calls to NEWREF down in some
  files.
* Bug fix in sorting lists.

  Added $(SYSDEF) to its build rule in Makefile.
* cgensupport.[ch], modsupport.[ch]: removed some old stuff.  Also
  changed files that still used it...  And made several things static
  that weren't but should have been...  And other minor cleanups...
* listobject.[ch]: add external interfaces {set,get}listslice
* socketmodule.c: fix bugs in new send() argument parsing.
* sunaudiodevmodule.c: added flush() and close().

* Removed one use of $> in Makefile and warned about others.
  Added configurable lines in Makefile to change CC and AR.
