Don't die when issubclass(t, TypeType) fails.

Bugfix candidate (but I think it's too late for 2.2.1).

Explain that many of the escapes supported by string literals are also
supported by the RE compiler, and list which ones.
This closes SF bug #529923.

dict-proxy objects.

Add real docstrings to all methods.

Due to interaction between the MSL C library and the GUSI I/O library I can get reads from sockets to work consistently either for unbuffered binary files or for buffered binary files, but not for both:-(

The workaround is to force socket.makefile() to disable buffering for binary files.

Fixes bug 534625. 2.2.1 candidate.

Fix whitespace on a line also.

'94, demonstrating a thread bug that was later repaired via Python growing
an internal import lock.  It's of no current interest, and the now-std
test_threaded_import.py is pretty much the same test.

ever do, they can damn well #define _POSIX_THREADS their own damn selves.

Weaklink most toolbox modules, improving backward compatibility. Modules will no longer fail to load if a single routine is missing on the curent OS version, in stead calling the missing routine will raise an exception.

Should finally fix 531398. 2.2.1 candidate.

TemporaryFile.  This flag causes the fd to be closed on exec().

This fixes the symptom, but PRINT_ITEM has no way to know what (if
anything) PyFile_WriteObject() writes unless the object being printed
is a string.  When the object isn't a string, this fix retains the
guess that softspace should be set after PyFile_WriteObject().
We might want to say that it's the job of filelike-object write methods
to leave the file's softspace in the correct state.  That would probably
be better -- but everyone relies on PRINT_ITEM to guess for them now.

that can be raised - do_help won't be called if arg is not a string

as the fully qualified local hostname.

This in inside the test so it really doesn't matter much.  Closes
