Patch by Serhiy Storchaka.

Close #15386: There was a loophole that meant importlib.machinery and imp would sometimes reference an uninitialised copy of importlib._bootstrap

Take the first step in resolving the messy pkgutil vs importlib edge cases by basing pkgutil explicitly on importlib, deprecating its internal import emulation and setting __main__.__loader__ correctly so that runpy still works (Affects #15343, #15314, #15357)

Close #15230: runpy.run_path now sets __package__ correctly. Also refactored the runpy tests to use a more systematic approach

finder instead of using some (now non-existent) implicit finder.

be implicit.

Added a warning for when sys.path_hooks is found to be empty. Also
changed the meaning of None in sys.path_importer_cache to represent
trying sys.path_hooks again (an interpretation of previous semantics).
Also added a warning for when None was found.

The long-term goal is for None in sys.path_importer_cache to represent
the same as imp.NullImporter: no finder found for that sys.path entry.

instead of text mode using the locale encoding, to support other encodings than
UTF-8 (scripts using the coding cookie).

The U flag is no more used (but still accepted for backward compatibility).

  Issue #7376: When called with no arguments doctest was running a
  self-test.  Because of a change to the way tracebacks are printed,
  this self-test was failing.  The test is run (and passes) during normal
  regression testing.  So instead of running the failing self-test this
  patch makes doctest emit a usage message.  This is better behavior anyway
  since passing in arguments is the real reason to run doctest as a command.

  Bug discovery and initial patch by Florent Xicluna.

  Here's a patch which addresses this.  It also fixes the indentation in
  PySSL_SetError, bringing it into line with PEP 7, fixes a compile warning
  about one of the OpenSSL macros, and makes the namespace a bit more
  consistent.  I've tested it on FC 7 and OS X 10.4.

  Improve extended slicing support in builtin types and classes. Specifically:

   - Specialcase extended slices that amount to a shallow copy the same way as
     is done for simple slices, in the tuple, string and unicode case.

   - Specialcase step-1 extended slices to optimize the common case for all
     involved types.

   - For lists, allow extended slice assignment of differing lengths as long
     as the step is 1. (Previously, 'l[:2:1] = []' failed even though
     'l[:2] = []' and 'l[:2:None] = []' do not.)

   - Implement extended slicing for buffer, array, structseq, mmap and
     UserString.UserString.

   - Implement slice-object support (but not non-step-1 slice assignment) for
     UserString.MutableString.

   - Add tests for all new functionality.

There's one major and one minor category still unfixed:
doctests are the major category (and I hope to be able to augment the
refactoring tool to refactor bona fide doctests soon);
other code generating print statements in strings is the minor category.

(Oh, and I don't know if the compiler package works.)

number of tests, all because of the codecs/_multibytecodecs issue described
here (it's not a Py3K issue, just something Py3K discovers):
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-April/064051.html

Hye-Shik Chang promised to look for a fix, so no need to fix it here. The
tests that are expected to break are:

test_codecencodings_cn
test_codecencodings_hk
test_codecencodings_jp
test_codecencodings_kr
test_codecencodings_tw
test_codecs
test_multibytecodec

This merge fixes an actual test failure (test_weakref) in this branch,
though, so I believe merging is the right thing to do anyway.

(branch-creation time) up to 43067. 43068 and 43069 contain a little
swapping action between re.py and sre.py, and this mightily confuses svn
merge, so later changes are going in separately.

This merge should break no additional tests.

The last-merged revision is going in a 'last_merge' property on '.' (the
branch directory.) Arbitrarily chosen, really; if there's a BCP for this, I
couldn't find it, but we can easily change it afterwards ;)
