add note about module failing with old versions of the library.

update comment that explains that this doc is *still* out of date

#else/#endif are wrong, and that #if HAVE_TM_ZONE should be #ifdef.

Fixed latex2html weirdness with a couple of footnotes.

Fixed 'copy_file()' to use '_copy_file_contents()', not 'copyfile()'

Added "not copying" announcement in 'copy_file()'.
Wee comment fix.

In test_cpickle.py, the module os got imported, but the line to remove
the temp file has gone missing.

If you send something like "PUT / HTTP/1.0" to something derived from
BaseHTTPServer that doesn't define do_PUT, you will get a response
that begins like this:

	HTTP/1.0 501 Unsupported method ('do_PUT')
	Server: SimpleHTTP/0.3 Python/1.5
	Date: Tue, 30 Mar 1999 18:53:53 GMT

The server should complain about 'PUT' instead of 'do_PUT'.  This
patch should fix the problem.

 - It needlessly used the makefile() method for each response that is
   read from the SMTP server.

 - If the remote SMTP server closes the connection unexpectedly the
   code raised an IndexError.  It now raises an SMTPServerDisconnected
   exception instead.

 - The code now checks that all lines in a multiline response actually
   contains an error code.

The problem was reported by Moshe Zadka.

"""
The GNU folks, in their infinite wisdom, have decided not to implement
altzone in libc6; this would not be horrible, except that timezone
(which is implemented) includes the current DST setting (i.e. timezone
for Central is 18000 in summer and 21600 in winter).  So Python's
timezone and altzone variables aren't set correctly during DST.

Here's a patch relative to 1.5.2b2 that (a) makes timezone and altzone
show the "right" thing on Linux (by using the tm_gmtoff stuff
available in BSD, which is how the GLIBC manual claims things should
be done) and (b) should cope with the southern hemisphere.  In pursuit
of (b), I also took the liberty of renaming the "summer" and "winter"
variables to "july" and "jan".  This patch should also make certain
time calculations on Linux actually work right (like the tz-aware
functions in the rfc822 module).

(It's hard to find DST that's currently being used in the southern
hemisphere; I tested using Africa/Windhoek.)

Filled in some of the "blank" areas, and added another large blank

I should have waited overnight <wink/sigh>.  Nothing wrong with the one I
sent, but I couldn't resist going on to add new -r1 / -r2 cmdline options
for recreating the original files from ndiff's output.  That's attached, if
you're game!  Us Windows guys don't usually have a sed sitting around
<wink>.

Attached is a cleaned-up version of ndiff (added useful module
docstring, now echo'ed in case of cmd line mistake); added -q option
to suppress initial file identification lines; + other minor cleanups,
& a slightly faster match engine.
