Patch for the DEC Alpha under Linux, by Lee Busby.

revision 1.36:
If PyXML is installed, there is no Node.allnodes, so that portion of
the test should be skipped if that's the case.

revision 1.35:
Remove duplicate checks of the Node.allnodes variable.

revision 1.33:
Follow PyXML: Remove all prints from successful tests.  This means we can
also drop the output file.

a specific Expat version.
This includes fixing a test that enforced the incorrect result.

issues with varying versions of Expat; this completes the previous fix
for this version.  (Not relevant for the trunk.)

Added include guards and C++ extern "C" {} constructs. Partial fix for #607253.

Quotes aren't necessary in case statements.  Spotted by Neil Schemenauer.

Need to quote $GCC in case it isn't set.

Fix SF # 591713, Fix "file:" URL to have right no. of /'s, by Bruce Atherton

Add a test too.  urljoin() would make file:/tmp/foo instead of file:///tmp/foo

Closes SF bug #614542.

Disable building of the fpectl module -- it's dangerous or useless
except in the hands of experts.

    revision 1.32 of urllib2.py

Fix from SF patch #527518: proxy config with user+pass authentication.

Bug fix candidate.

    revision 2.36 of binascii.c

Another stab at SF 576327: zipfile when sizeof(long) == 8
binascii_crc32():  The previous patch forced this to return the same
result across platforms.  This patch deals with that, on a 64-bit box,
the *entry* value may have "unexpected" bits in the high four bytes.

Bugfix candidate.

--------

More whitespace cleanup related conflict removal... sigh.

    revision 2.35 of binascii.c

Fix for SF bug #576327: zipfile when sizeof(long) == 8
binascii_crc32():  Make this return a signed 4-byte result across
platforms.  The other way to make this platform-independent would be to
make it return an unsigned unbounded int, but the evidence suggests
other code out there treats it like a signed 4-byte int (e.g., existing
code writing the result with struct.pack "l" format).

Bugfix candidate.

2.3, support for source code encodings, so it shouldn't be backported
(no matter how attractive the checkin msg sounded).

Please, try to *use* IDLE before committing changes!

On Windows, select() does not accept empty lists.
Patch suggested by Guido, fixes SF item 611464.

Bugfix candidate, will backport to release22-maint myself.

On Windows, call WSAGetLastError() to retrieve the error number.

alpha or beta at all isn't clear; but while it's unreleased, I think
a0 is the best indicator we've got.)

count behavior.

XML_Parser, which happens to be a pointer type, not an XML_Parser*.
This generated warnings when compiled with Expat 1.95.5, which no
longer defines XML_Parser to be void*.

fixes for the "try to resize it" test (Windows grows the underlying
file then, and that screws up later tests that assume the underlying
file has not changed size, as was true on the box (Linux) the person
who changed this test in 2.2 to begin with tried it on).  Without this
change, test_mmap fails on Windows.  Now it passes again.

UTF-8 decoder accept broken UTF-8 sequences which encode lone
high surrogates (the pre-2.2.2 versions forgot to generate the
UTF-8 prefix \xed for these).

Fixes SF bug #610783: Lone surrogates cause bad .pyc files.

not abstract characters.

    revision 1.74 of marshal.c

Whitespace normalization.

    revision 1.3 of test_marshal.py

Fix SF 588452: debug build crashes on marshal.dumps([128] * 1000).
See there for a description.

Added test case.

Bugfix candidate for 2.2.x, not sure about previous versions:
probably low priority, because virtually no one runs debug builds.

    revision 1.73 of marshal.c

Fix SF 588452: debug build crashes on marshal.dumps([128] * 1000).
See there for a description.

Added test case.

Bugfix candidate for 2.2.x, not sure about previous versions:
probably low priority, because virtually no one runs debug builds.

    revision 2.87 of cPickle.c

Do more robust test of whether global objects are accessible.

PyImport_ImportModule() is not guaranteed to return a module object.
When another type of object was returned, the PyModule_GetDict() call
return NULL and the subsequent GetItem() seg faulted.

Bug fix candidate.

----------

Once again, whitespace chances scuppered automatic backporting, so
I did this by hand.  Review probably wise -- but I have run make test!

Also incorporates revision 2.88 which was just removing a now unused
declaration.

    revision 2.265 of bltinmodule.c

execfile should call PyErr_SetFromErrnoWithFilename instead of
simply PyErr_SetFromErrno

This closes bug 599163.

    revision 1.12 of config.py

Include an empty body when checking for a header file

(Bugfix candidate for 2.2, and likely 2.1 as well)

    revision 1.57 of pdb.py

date: 2002/09/10 21:57:14;  author: gvanrossum;  state: Exp;  lines: +7 -1
At Jim Fulton's request, increase the maxstring value of _saferepr to
a more reasonable value.

Backport candidate.
