reached through a symlink (was comparing path of module to path to function and
were not matching because of the symlink).  os.path.realpath() is now used to
solve this discrepency.

Closes bug #570300.  Thanks Johannes Gijsbers for the fix.

them (which they are now), I had to rewrite the code to understand
it.  This has got to be the most DWIM part of doctest -- but in context
is really necessary.

any results)

this depends on a new feature in Expat added in 1.95.8

There were subsections without sections, so drop a sub.

[ 1005891 ] support --with-tsc on PPC

plus a trivial change to settscdump's docstring and a Misc/NEWS entry.

[ 1004703 ] Make func_name writable

plus fixing a couple of nits in the documentation changes spotted by MvL

habit of these, sorry).

[ 1005248 ] new.code() not cleanly checking its arguments

using the result of new.code() can still destroy the sun, but merely
calling the function shouldn't any more.

I also rewrote the existing tests of new.code() to use vastly less
un-bogus arguments, and added tests for the previous insane behaviours.

Backported to 2.3.

Backported to 2.3.

(rather than replacing <BLANKLINE> with blank lines in `got`).  This
makes it easier to see what's intended.

  visually distinguish the expected output from the comments (use
  "##" to mark expected outputs, and "#" to mark comments).
- If the string given to DocTestParser.get_program() is indented, then
  strip its indentation.  (In particular, find the min indentation of
  non-blank lines, and strip that indentation from all lines.)

- Added comments for some regexps
- If the traceback type/message don't match, then still print full
  traceback in report_failure (not just the first & last lines)
- Renamed DocTestRunner.__failure_header -> _failure_header

  modify option flags for a single example; they do not turn options
  on or off.)
- Added "indent" and "options" attributes for Example
- Got rid of add_newlines param to DocTestParser._parse_example (it's
  no longer needed; Example's constructor now takes care of it).
- Added some docstrings

  option flags); and use it to define the existing optionflag
  constants.

Fix typo in getquotaroot parameter reported by Thierry FLORAC. Also amplify doc string for select to indicate proper way to obtain other responses.
