NOT a bugfix candidate.

why in a new comment.  My home Win98SE box is one of the "real systems"
alluded to (my system "default sound" appears to have vanished sometime

PlaySound docs are correct in their explanation of what happens then).

Bugfix candidate.  If someone can still sneak it into 2.3.1, that would

Added test whether wchar_t is signed or not. A signed wchar_t is not usable as internal unicode type base for Py_UNICODE since the unicode implementation assumes an unsigned type.

  method (PyUnit issue 563882, thanks to Alexandre Fayolle)
- Ignore non-callable attributes of classes when searching for test
  method names (PyUnit issue 769338, thanks to Seth Falcon)
- New assertTrue and assertFalse aliases for comfort of JUnit users
- Automatically discover 'runTest()' test methods (PyUnit issue 469444,
  thanks to Roeland Rengelink)
- Dropped Python 1.5.2 compatibility, merged appropriate shortcuts from
  Python CVS; should work with Python >= 2.1.
- Removed all references to string module by using string methods instead

Refactor code so that one helper routine sets error location and
increments st_errors.

Adds support for building and installing bsddb3 in python2.3 that has
an older version of this module installed as bsddb without conflicts.
The pybsddb.sf.net build/packaged version of the module uses a
dynamicly loadable module called _pybsddb rather than _bsddb.

adding the iterator interface for python >= 2.3.

Not backported because of behaviour change.

Will backport to 2.3.

so fiddle Jeremy's fix to live with that.  Also added more comments.

Bugfix candidate (this bug is in all versions of Python, at least since
2.1).
