this can result in significantly smaller files.  All classes as well as the
open function now accept an optional binary parameter, which defaults to
False for backward compatibility.  Added a small test suite, updated the
libref documentation (including documenting the exported classes and fixing
a few other nits) and added a note about the change to Misc/NEWS.

1. Additional debug messages in rpc.py
2. Move debug message enable switch from SocketIO to Client and Server
   to allow separate activation.
3. Add indication of origin (client or server) to debug message
4. Add sequence number to appropriate debug messages

5. Pass string exception arg as a string rather than a tuple.

This patch enables the bz2 module to build cleanly under Cygwin.

Although motived by Cygwin, this patch will prevent
test_commands from failing on Unixes that support
ACLs. For example, the following is an excerpt from
the Solaris ls manpage:

	...
	-rwxrwxrwx+ 1 smith dev 10876 May 16 9:42 part2

	The plus sign indicates that there is an ACL associated
	with the file.
	...

This patch updates regrtest.py to understand which
tests are normally skipped under Cygwin. The list of
tests was verified with the Cygwin Python maintainer.

Just van Rossum showed a weird, but clever way for pure python code to
trigger the BadInternalCall.  The C code had assumed that calling a class
constructor would return an instance of that class; however, classes that
abuse __new__ can invalidate that assumption.
