Mozilla 0.9.5 can make intelligent use of them.  Specifically, this causes

This partially responds to SF bug #469772.

\filename{} should be \file{}

response to a message by Laura Creighton on c.l.py.  E.g.

    >>> 0+''
    TypeError: unsupported operand types for +: 'int' and 'str'

(previously this did not mention the operand types)

    >>> ''+0
    TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'int' objects

There really isn't a good reason for instance method objects to have
their own __dict__, __doc__ and __name__ properties that just delegate
the request to the function (callable); the default attribute behavior
already does this.

The test suite had to be fixed because the error changes from
TypeError to AttributeError.

(formerly these were silently ignored).  The only built-in methods
that take keyword arguments are __call__, __init__ and __new__.

and tabs.)

This fixes SF bug: [ #473491 ] "install -d" doesn't work on HP-UX.

- Build bsddb module with libdb3 if it's available.  It also fixes a bug that
  causes the build of bsddb to fail on Debian if bsddb3-dev is installed.

removed USE_PYTHON defines, and related sre.py helpers

skip calling the subx helper if the template is callable.
interestingly enough, this means that

	def callback(m):
	    return literal
	result = pattern.sub(callback, string)

is much faster than

	result = pattern.sub(literal, string)

check to the test suite.

added a few missing exception checks in the _sre module

removed (conceptually flawed) getliteral helper; the new sub/subn code
uses a faster code path for literal replacement strings, but doesn't
(yet) look for literal patterns.

added STATE_OFFSET macro, and use it to convert state.start/ptr to
char indexes

Do not set the Expat handlers if it is. Fixes PyXML bug #473195.

'slotdef' structure typedef and 'struct wrapperbase'.  By adding the
wrapper docstrings to the slotdef structure, the slotdefs array can
serve as the data structure that drives add_operators(); the wrapper
descriptor contains a pointer to slotdef structure.  This replaces
lots of custom code from add_operators() by a loop over the slotdefs
array, and does away with all the tab_xxx tables.

also restored SRE Unicode support for 1.6/2.0/2.1

    1. configure doesn't handle HP-UX release numbers

those parameters live.

use the correct base for a buffer object in _PyBuffer_FromObject.

This appears to be a case of a missing \n\ in a multiline string
literal.

This patch should also be applied to the 2.2b1 trunk.

anything about the hotshot profiler, this file is ready for the 2.2b1
Windows build.
