code.InteractiveConsole to do a much better job.

gotten from a weak reference to NULL instead of to None.  This caused
the following assert() to fail (but only in 2.2 in the debug build --
I have to find a better test case).  Will backport.

This closes SF bug #550777.

Write 4 bytes for co_stacksize, etc. to prevent writing out
bad .pyc files which can cause a crash when read back in.

(I forgot that frozen needs to be updated too for the test.)

Handle negative indices similar to slices.

This closes SF bug #562878.

Not sure if code is correct, but that is what's in this file.
I've seen \constant{True} in other places.

Warning caused by using &func.  & is not necessary.

optional attribute, only clear the exception when the internal getattr
operation raised AttributeError.  Many places in this file already had
that policy; but just as many didn't, and there didn't seem to be any
rhyme or reason to it.  Be consistently cautious.

Question: should I backport this?  On the one hand it's a bugfix.  On
the other hand it's a change in behavior.  Certain forms of buggy or
just weird code would work in the past but raise an exception under
the new rules; e.g. if you define a __getattr__ method that raises a
non-AttributeError exception.

suggested there, based upon a better analysis (__getattr__ is a red
herring).  Will backport to 2.2.

Cleanup code a bit and return as early as possible.

Convert loops to memset()s.

They still run as standalone scripts, but when used as part of the
regression test suite, they are effectively no-ops.
(This is done by renaming test_main to main.)

473985.  Through a subtle rearrangement of some members in the etype
struct (!), mapping methods are now preferred over sequence methods,
which is necessary to support str.__getitem__("hello", slice(4)) etc.

Closes SF bug #568577.

Look in both moddirlist and incdirlist, since a .h could be in either.

Two new tests are needed:

Don't skip building an extension if any of the depends files are newer
than the target.

Pass ext.depends to compiler.compile() so that it can track individual
files.

Always use _setup_compile() to do the grunt work of processing
arguments, figuring out which files to compile, and emitting debug
messages for files that are up-to-date.

Use _get_cc_args() when possible.

This change is not backwards compatible.  If a compiler subclass
exists outside the distutils package, it may get called with the
unexpected keyword arg.  It's easy to extend that compiler by having
it ignore the argument, and not much harder to do the right thing.  If
this ends up being burdensome, we can change it before 2.3 final to
work harder at compatibility.

Also add _setup_compile() and _get_cc_args() helper functions that
factor out much of the boilerplate for each concrete compiler class.

pyconfig.h.

DNS, and we can't assume that.

that retries the connect() call in timeout mode so it can be shared
between connect() and connect_ex(), and needs only a single #ifdef.

The test for this was doing funky stuff I don't approve of,
so I removed it in favor of a simpler test.  This allowed me
to implement a simpler, "purer" form of the timeout retry code.
Hopefully that's enough (if you want to be fancy, use non-blocking
mode and decode the errors yourself, like before).

Remove __init__ that just called base class __init__ with same args.
Fold long argument lists into fewer, shorter lines.
Remove parens in tuple unpacks.
Don't put multiple statements on one line with a semicolon.
In find_library_file() compute the library_filename() upfront.
