that pyclbr doesn't need to special-case modules that do "from types
import *".

These built-in functions are replaced by their (now callable) type:

    slice()
    buffer()

and these types can also be called (but have no built-in named
function named after them)

    classobj (type name used to be "class")
    code
    function
    instance
    instancemethod (type name used to be "instance method")

The module "new" has been replaced with a small backward compatibility
placeholder in Python.

A large portion of the patch simply removes the new module from
various platform-specific build recipes.  The following binary Mac
project files still have references to it:

    Mac/Build/PythonCore.mcp
    Mac/Build/PythonStandSmall.mcp
    Mac/Build/PythonStandalone.mcp

[I've tweaked the code layout and the doc strings here and there, and
added a comment to types.py about StringTypes vs. basestring.  --Guido]

Also, added more regression tests to cover the new type and test its
conformity with range().

I left the email pkg alone; I'm not sure how Barry would like to handle
that.

Rather than add umpteen new obscure internal Iter types, got rid of all of
them.  See the new comment.

Preliminary support.  What's here works, but needs fine-tuning.

- Do not compile unicodeobject, unicodectype, and unicodedata if Unicode is disabled
- check for Py_USING_UNICODE in all places that use Unicode functions
- disables unicode literals, and the builtin functions
- add the types.StringTypes list
- remove Unicode literals from most tests.

the yield statement.  I figure we have to have this in before I can
release 2.2a1 on Wednesday.

Note: test_generators is currently broken, I'm counting on Tim to fix
this.

Iterators list for bringing it up!

The attached patches update the standard library so that all modules
have docstrings beginning with one-line summaries.

A new docstring was added to formatter.  The docstring for os.py
was updated to mention nt, os2, ce in addition to posix, dos, mac.

assignments.

(though some type names are undefined in that case, e.g. CodeType
(inaccessible), FileType (not always accessible), and TracebackType
and FrameType (inaccessible).

be Ellipsis!).
Bumped the API version because a linker-visible symbol is affected.
Old C code will still compile -- there's a b/w compat macro.
Similarly, old Python code will still run, builtin exports both
Ellipses and Ellipsis.

StringIO implements pseudo files writing into and reading from strings.
