[ 988613 ] compiler.transformer and tuple unpacking

a non-standard protocol and on a lower port than the tcp/udp entries,
which breaks the assumption that there will only be one service by a
given name on a given port when no protocol is specified.

Previous versions of this code have had other problems as a result of
different service definitions amongst common platforms.  As this platform
has an extra, unexpected, service entry, I've special cased the platform
rather than re-order the list of services checked to highlight the pitfall.

Removed debugging print statements from TimedRotatingFileHandler, and sorted list returned by glob.glob() (SF #987166)

I don't agree it had a bug (see the report), so this is *not* a candidate
for backporting, but the docs were confusing and the Queue implementation
was old enough to vote.

Rewrote put/put_nowait/get/get_nowait from scratch, to use a pair of
Conditions (not_full and not_empty), sharing a common mutex.  The code
is 1/4 the size now, and 6.25x easier to understand.  For blocking
with timeout, we also get to reuse (indirectly) the tedious timeout
code from threading.Condition.  The Full and Empty exceptions raised
by non-blocking calls are now easy (instead of nearly impossible) to
explain truthfully:  Full is raised if and only if the Queue truly
is full when the non-blocking put call checks the queue size, and
similarly for Empty versus non-blocking get.

What I don't know is whether the new implementation is slower (or
faster) than the old one.  I don't really care.  Anyone who cares
a lot is encouraged to check that.

This is a derived patch, taking the opportunity to add some organization
to the now-large pile of datetime-related macros, and to factor out
tedious repeated text.

Also improved some clumsy wording in NEWS.
