was obviously leaking an int object when whatever the heck it's looking for

class definitions at an interactive prompt leaked a reference to the
integer 1 each time.
Bugfix candidate.

type.__module__ behavior.

This adds the module name and a dot in front of the type name in every
type object initializer, except for built-in types (and those that
already had this).  Note that it touches lots of Mac modules -- I have
no way to test these but the changes look right.  Apologies if they're
not.  This also touches the weakref docs, which contains a sample type
object initializer.  It also touches the mmap test output, because the
mmap type's repr is included in that output.  It touches object.h to
put the correct description in a comment.

The OSS Programmer's Reference (www.4front-tech.com)
states:

*Setting Sampling Parameters

There are three parameters which affect the sound
quality (and therefore memory and bandwidth
requirements) of sampled audio data. These are:

** sample format (sometimes called number of bits)
** number of channels (mono or stereo), and
** sampling rate (speed)

NOTE:

It is important to always set these parameters in the
above order. Setting sampling rate before the number
of channels doesn't work with all devices.

open_http():
    In urllib.py library module, URLopener.open_https()
    returns a class instance of addinfourl() with its
    self.url property missing the protocol.

    Instead of "https://www.someurl.com", it becomes
    "://www.someurl.com".

allows continue in the finally clause.

2. Avoid using _testcapi when running with jython.

the module a second time in that situation, and fiddled the __main__

Release the global interpreter lock around platform spawn calls.
Bugfix candidate?  Hard to say; I favor "yes, bugfix".
These clearly *should* have been releasing the GIL all along, if for no
other reason than compatibility with the similar os.system().  But it's
possible some program out there is (a) multithreaded, (b) calling a spawn
function with P_WAIT, and (c) relying on the spawn call to block all their
threads until the spawned program completes.  I think it's very unlikely
anyone is doing that on purpose, but someone may be doing so by accident.

casts with a variable oself that has the proper type.  A smart
compiler may put this thing into a register.

(I'm not sure what good this does except satisfy my desire to
understand this function; I got a report about an uninitialized read
from Insure++ about this function and it hurt my eyes to even look at
it.  I gotta run away or I'll get tempted to reformat the entire
file...)

out the for loop at the end intended to zero out new items wasn't
doing anything, because sv->ob_size was already equal to newsize.  The
fix slightly refactors the function, introducing a variable oldsize
and doing away with sizediff (which was used only once), and using
oldsize and newsize consistently.  I also added comments explaining
what the two for loops do.  (Looking at the CVS annotation of this
function, it's no miracle a bug crept in -- this has been patched by
many different folks! :-)

(I imagine the other recent leak patches are bug fix candidates, too,
but I forgot to mark mine as such.)

Bump version number

(At least for the repeatable test case that Tim produced.)

pattern_subx(): Add missing DECREF(filter) in both exit branches
(normal and error return).  Also fix a DECREF(args) that should
certainly be a DECREF(match) -- because it's inside if (!args) and
right after allocation of match.

annoying that often you have to hit ^C numerous times before it
works.  The solution: before the "except:" clause, insert "except
KeyboardInterrupt: raise".  This propagates KeyboardInterrupt out,
stopping the test in its tracks.

obnoxious to compute and easier to explain.  No compromise on safety.
