Facilitate cross-compilation by having binaries in separate Win32 and x64 directories.
Rationalized configs by making proper use of platforms/configurations.
Remove pythoncore_pgo project.
Add new PGIRelease and PGORelease configurations to perform Profile Guided Optimisation.
Removed I64 support, but this can be easily added by copying the x64 platform settings.

the function name was placed into a regex pattern and the unbalanced paren
caused re.compile() to report an error

[Bug #1525469] SimpleXMLRPCServer still uses the sys.exc_{value,type} module-level globals instead of calling sys.exc_info().  Reported by Russell Warren

to use "in".

- gbk and gb18030 codec now handle U+30FB KATAKANA MIDDLE DOT correctly.
- iso2022_jp_2 codec now encodes into G0 for KS X 1001, GB2312
  codepoints to conform the standard.
- iso2022_jp_3 and iso2022_jp_2004 codec can encode JIS X 2013:2
  codepoints now.

Add a comment about some refactoring.  (There's probably more that should be done.)  I will reformat this file in the next checkin due to the inconsistent tabs/spaces.

generator expressions (x for x, in ... ) works again.

Sigh, I only fixed for loops the first time, not list comps and genexprs too.
I couldn't find any more unpacking cases where there is a similar bug lurking.

This code should be refactored to eliminate the duplication.  I'm sure
the listcomp/genexpr code can be refactored.  I'm not sure if the for loop
can re-use any of the same code though.

Will backport to 2.5 (the only place it matters).

i_divmod():  As discussed on Python-Dev, changed the overflow
checking to live happily with recent gcc optimizations that
assume signed integer arithmetic never overflows.

This differs from the corresponding change on the 2.5 and 2.4
branches, using a less obscure approach, but one that /may/
tickle platform idiocies in their definitions of LONG_MIN.
The 2.4 + 2.5 change avoided introducing a dependence on
LONG_MIN, at the cost of substantially goofier code.

Debian sparc buildbots.  Since this goes through a lot of tests
and hits the disk a lot it could be slow (especially if NFS is involved).
I'm not sure if that's the problem, but printing periodic msgs shouldn't hurt.
The code was stolen from test_compiler.

Needs backport to 2.5.1 and earlier.

- various minor cleanups for improved consistency

have all new files use 4 spaces (to match current PEP 7 style).

Backport candidate.

Remove the old decimal context management tests from test_contextlib (guess who didn't run the test suite before committing...)

Fix the wrongheaded implementation of context management in the decimal module and add unit tests. (python-dev discussion is ongoing regarding what we do about Python 2.5)

Backport candidate for 2.5.

This should probably go into Python 2.5 or 2.5.1 as well.
