test_multiprocessing.  Patch by Paul Moore.

Only override the AC_PROG_CC determined CFLAGS if they were set by the user.
This restores the default behavior in the common case of not having CFLAGS
defined when running configure.

Mac/README. Fixes issue 7107.

framework install of Python in your home directory (on OSX):

   $ configure --enable-framework=${HOME}/Library/Frameworks
   $ make && make install

Without this patch the framework would get installed just fine,
but 'make install' would try to install the application bundles
and command-line tools outside the user's home, which doesn't work
for non-admin users (and is bad form anyway).

Antoine Pitrou: is my version of the paragraph still correct?

R. David Murray: is this more understandable than the previous version?

Group the Windows entries in getfilesystemencoding doc, move the win 9x one at the bottom of the list and fix some markup.

files with execute permissions set.

of the Linux kernel.  Patch by Yaniv Aknin.

Markup fixes to use :exc:, :option: in a few places.
  (Glitch: unittest.main's -c ends up a link to the Python
  interpreter's -c option.  Should we skip using :option: for that
  switch, or disable the auto-linking somehow?)

and remove a duplicate of its specification.

Issue 8202: when using the -m command line switch, sys.argv[0] is now '-m' instead of '-c' while searching for the module to be executed

Issue 7490: make IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL also ignore details of the module containing the exception under test (original patch by Lennart Regebro)

 * Use try/except ImportError or test_support.import_module() to import thread
   and threading modules
 * Add @unittest.skipUnless(threading, ...) to testcases using threads

Use test_support.import_module() instead of import to raise a SkipTest
exception if the import fail. Import trace fails if the threading module is
missing.

See also part 3: test_doctest: import trace module in test_coverage().

Rewrite r80556: the thread test have to be executed just after the test on
libc_open() and so the test cannot be splitted in two functions (without
duplicating code, and I don't want to duplicate code).

 * Skip testcases using threads if threading module is missing
 * Use "http://" instead of URL in ServerProxyTestCase if threading is missing
   because URL is not set in this case
