or LinkError (exception classes defined in ccompiler.py).

Added 'reinitialize_command()' -- lets us "push" option values in
  a controlled, safe way; this is a small change to the code, but
  a big change to the Distutils philosophy of passing option values
  around.  The preferred mode is still definitely to "pull" options
  from another command (eg. "install" fetches the base build directory
  from "build"), but it is now feasible to "push" options onto another
  command, when you know what's best for it.  One possible application
  will be a "config" command, which pokes around the system and pushes
  values (eg. include and library directories) onto the "build" command.
Added 'dump_option_dicts()' method (for debugging output).

Added a warning for 'bdist_base' directory.

  * Command method 'find_peer()' -> 'get_finalized_command()'
  * Command method 'run_peer()' -> 'run_command()'
Also deleted the 'get_command_option()' method from Command, and
  fixed the one place where it was used (in "bdist_dumb").

directories after all is said and done, so we don't accidentally include
those files in the source distribution.

(This is the quick and easy way to fix this; Andrew says: "Changing
findall() looked like it was going to be messy, so I tried this instead.
The only problem is that redundant directory traversals are being done,
walking through build/ only to throw out all the files found at the end.").

and method 'has_headers()'.

bug when adding new code, so I thought I'd make it blow up earlier
than deep in posix.py.

  * 'headers' entry added to all the install schemes
  * '--install-headers' option added
  * 'install_headers' added to 'sub_commands'
  * added 'dist_name' to configuration variables (along with a few
    others that seem handy: 'dist_version', 'dist_fullname', and
    'py_version'
  * in 'finalize_unix()', make sure 'install_headers' defined if
    user specified 'install_base' and/or 'install_platbase'
  * added 'has_headers()'
  * a few other small changes

Python on UNIX now trusts PYTHONHOME unconditionally

Modules/getpath.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

Setting PYTHONHOME now unconditionally sets sys.prefix
(and sys.exec_prefix). No further checks are done whether the
standard lib can be found in that location or not. This is in
sync with the PC subdir getpath implementations.

PC/getpathp.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

PC/os2vacpp/getpathp.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

Note: BAW's checkin on exceptions.c eliminates earlier concerns about
a bogus PYTHONHOME value leading to a core dump.  Instead it causes a
useless sys.path and prevents imports.

Deprecated direct access to template.
Added note about past need to modify template so that legacy code has a
better chance of being understood, noting that the requirement to reset
template after os.fork() disappeared in 1.5.2.

Removed obsolete comments about this module not creating or removing actual
files.
Removed obsolete comment about users needing to set template to None after
calling os.fork().

create shared extensions rather than 'ld -G'.  This ensures that shared
extensions link against libgcc.a, in case there are any functions in the
GCC runtime not already in the Python core.

I've added an extra comment about quoting arguments to
IMAP4 commands. Also changed the command descriptions
to show optional extra commands where appropriate.

Fred Drake:
Added example usage for the search() method based on comments from
<Lucas.DeJonge@awtpl.com.au>; elaborated error handling information
when arguments are missing from search() and uid().

up-to-date with respect to the source files; that way, we
don't needlessly rebuild just because object files go away.

  dictionaries in 'self.command_options' to 'get_option_dict()'.
Simplified code in 'parse_config_files()' and 'parse_command_line()'
  accordingly.
Fixed code in constructor that processes the 'options' dictionary
  from the setup script so it actually works: uses the new
  'self.command_options' dictionary rather than creating command
  objects and calling 'set_option()' on them.

Changed the exception-handling code in 'setup()' to re-raise exceptions
  if DEBUG is true.

attempt to verify the bold assertions in the documentation):
  * entries for the "root package" in 'package_dir' didn't work --
    fixed by improving the fall-through code in 'get_package_dir()'
  * __init__.py files weren't installed when modules-in-packages
    were listed individually (ie. in 'py_modules' in the setup script);
    fixed by making 'check_package()' return the name of the __init__
    file if it exists, and making 'find_modules()' add an entry to
    the module list for __init__ if applicable

This patch adds a comment about quoting to the doc string,
and also checks that the 'flags' argument to the STORE command
is appropriately enclosed inside parentheses to avoid quoting.
