change resolution of local name ops (LOAD_FAST).  i think it makes
sense now.  if it is an argument or a local var name that it used, it
must be in varnames.  if it is a local var name that is used, it must
also be in names

  'get_msvc_paths()'.
Renamed '_do_SET()' to 'set_path_env_var()', tweaked docstring, and
  cosmetically tweaked code.
Stylistic changes to MSVCCompiler constructor (variable renaming
  and type consistency).

  * tweak my docstrings
  * fix None returns to empty list
  * reshuffle responsibilities between '_find_exe()', '_find_SET()', and
    the MSVCCompiler constructor -- now the constructor worries about
    fetching the version list and determining the most recent one
  * added "/W3" compile option
Also, I added/tweaked some docstrings.

Loop object to handle StackRegs
loops stack attr on CodeGenreeator to hold the current loop object

add support for nodes While, Break, Continue

classes, NNTP.__init__() grows a new optional argument to set reader
mode on the server).

    NNTPError - derived from Exception, it's the base class for all
    other exceptions in this module

    NNTPReplyError - what used to be error_reply

    NNTPTemporaryError - what used to be error_temp

    NNTPPermanentError - what used to be error_perm

    NNTPProtocolError - what used to be error_proto

    NNTPDataError - what used to be error_data

All the old names are retained for backwards compatibility; they point
to the class that replaces them.  Also, any code in this module that
raises an exception, now does so with the exception class.

NNTP.__init__(): Added a new optional argument `readermode', which is
a flag that defaults to false.  When set to true, the "mode reader"
command is sent to the NNTP server before user authentication.  Reader
mode is sometimes necessary if you are connecting to an NNTP server on
the local machine and intend to call reader-specific comamnds, such as
`group'.  If you get unexpected NNTPPermanentErrors, you might need to
set readermode.  Patch provided by Thomas Wouters (who include the
standard disclaimer on is patches@python.org submission), and inspired
by Jim Tittsler.

version only).

Enable -tt for the regression test.

Very similar to Skip's patch.

FUNCTION_NAMESPACE.  initialize in __init__ and reset in
generateFunctionCode.

replace direct issue of STORE_FAST, STORE_GLOBAL, etc. with call to
storeName; same for loadName and deleteName

the new {store,load,delete}Name methods use the namespace attr and the
local variable stack to determine the correct bytecode to issue

I ran "expand" instead of using Skip's patch, but it's all the same.

button (i.e. an empty label hides the button).

function names, dbetter (hopefully) ocstrings, and comments.

/export option mini-kludge.

  * don't need to mention python<ver>.lib -- it's done by a pragma
  * add debug flags for compile and link, and use them
  * fix 'link_shared_library()' to pass everything to 'link_shared_object()'
  * change filename when shared object with debug info (ugh)

* prints out examples of nodes that are handled by visitor.  simply a
  development convenience

remove NestedCodeGenerator -- it was bogus after all
replace with generateFunctionCode, a method to call to generate code
  for a function instead of a top-level module

fix impl of visitDiscard (most pop stack)
emit lineno for pass

handle the following new node types: Import, From, Getattr, Subscript,
Slice, AssAttr, AssTuple, Mod, Not, And, Or, List

LocalNameFinder: remove names declared as globals for locals

PythonVMCode: pass arg names to constructor, force varnames to contain
them all (even if they aren't referenced)

add -q option on command line to disable stdout

to fallback to if the user doesn't set it for those commands.

  someone who knows Windows/MSVC++ to come along and add the right flags.
Comment noting that 'link_static_lib()' signature is inconsistent with
  the other compiler classes (uh-oh!)

'-g' flag to compiler/linker command lines when it's true.

Doc fix: several paragraphs under 'link_static_lib()' moved to
  'link_shared_lib()', where they belong.

VERBOSE setting for the ASTVisitor

add getopt handling for one or more -v args

rename ForwardRef to StackRef, because it isn't necessarily directional

CodeGenerator:
* add assertStackEmpty method.  prints warning if stack is not empty
  when it should be
* define methods for AssName, UNARY_*, For

PythonVMCode:
* fix mix up between hasjrel and hasjabs for address calculation

language.

CodeGenerator:
* modify to track stack depth
* add emit method that call's PythonVMCode's makeCodeObject
* thread filenames through in hackish way
* set flags for code objects for modules and functions
  XXX the docs for the flags seem out of date and/or incomplete

PythonVMCode:
* add doc string describing the elements of a real code object

LineAddrTable:
* creates an lnotab (no quite correctly though)

add varargs and kwargs attributes to Function nodes

_init_nt():  Use get_config_h_filename() instead of figuring out the
             name directly.

             g['SO'] should be set to '.pyd'.

             Adjust some minor coding nits.

harder to find the MSVC compiler (mainly by using the registry).

database is closed.  Raise gdbm.error instead.

Bug report #198 submitted by Barry Haddow <bhaddow@orbism.com>.

it should raise gdbm.error.

for the other projects, to move the x86 project names back to what
they were.

Typo fix.

in the current distribution: motivated by PIL's libImaging.
