Original version written by Thomas Gellekum, reshaped into a separate

Remove several macros and #includes; py_curses.h contains them now.

Wrapped some long lines.

    give minidom.py behaviour that complies with the DOM Level 1 REC,
    which says that when a node newChild is added to the tree, "if the
    newChild is already in the tree, it is first removed."

    pulldom.py is patched to use the public minidom interface instead
    of setting .parentNode itself.  Possibly this reduces pulldom's
    efficiency; someone else will have to pronounce on that.

Simplifies ord()'s logic at the cost of some code duplication, removing a
    " `ord' might be used uninitialized in this function" warning

in one place.

    DISTUTILS_DEBUG set"

 incorrect % characters; characters outside the printable range are
 replaced with '?'

Added hash() and compare() functions. Needed because multiple WinObj's can now refer to the same underlying WindowRef.

Blacklisted a few constants with funny definitions (and they're not important anyway: backward compatible error numbers).

importing regex (we *know* that it's obsolete :-).

use of PyErr_Warn()!  This module is a good guinea pig because it's
been obsolete since 1.5.0 was released.

so we can't use it.

While I'm at it, got rid of string module use.  (Found several new
hard special cases for a hypothetical conversion tool: from string
import join, find, rfind; and a local assignment "find=string.find".)

additional escape sequences defined for Unicode.

the refcount is incremented when it is raised as an exception, but not
otherwise.)

Add an XXX comment at the beginning expressing disappointment over the
confusing way refcount behavior of arguments is documented.

Get rid of BeOpen references.

required to work around restrictions on the arguments of
u.translate():

1) don't pass the deletions argument if it's empty;

2) convert table to Unicode if s is Unicode.

This fixes SF bug #124060.

1) multi-char separator
2) multi-char separator that only occurs at last position
3) all of the above with mixed Unicode and 8-bit-string arguments
