I chose IOError rather than EnvironmentError as the base class since
socket objects are often used as transparent duck typed file objects
in code already prepared to deal with IOError exceptions.

also a minor fix:

 urllib2 - fix a couple places where IOError was raised rather than URLError.
           for better or worse, URLError already inherits from IOError so
           this won't break any existing code.

 test_urllib2net - replace bad ftp urls.

(Make-)files that use mandir (and other data directory macros).

This patch solves a warning during configure, specifically:

...
config.status: creating Makefile.pre
config.status: WARNING:  ../Makefile.pre.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting
...

Add a workaround for a strange bug on win64, when _ctypes is compiled
with the SDK compiler.  This should fix the failing

ever going back out to Python code in PyObject_Call().  Required introducing a
static RuntimeError instance so that normalizing an exception there is no
reliance on a recursive call that would put the exception system over the
recursion check itself.

implementation of either function depends on ctypes but uuid as a whole does
not.

branch, seems like it ought to be on the trunk as well.

This attack is against ceval.c:IMPORT_NAME, which calls an
object (__builtin__.__import__) without holding a reference to it.

ptrace_enter_call() assumes no exception is currently set.
This assumption is broken when throwing into a generator.
