xxxPyCObject_Import() seems to be a copy of PyCObject_Import().

modules, the errno module is being made static so it will always be
available.
Closes SF bug #591205 (needed on trunk only).

1) Do not attempt to exec a file which does not exist
just to find out what error the operating system
returns. This is an exploitable race on all platforms
that support symbolic links.

2) Immediately re-raise the exception if we get an
error other than errno.ENOENT or errno.ENOTDIR. This
may need to be adapted for other platforms.

(As a security issue, this should be considered for 2.1
and 2.2 as well as 2.3.)

where it was: it is really a configuration file, not a normal module.

By moving it into Mac/Lib we can now also store the location of bgen
itself in there, which is needed because bgen isn't installed.

Renamed Py_Main to PyMac_Main as it has a different signature than the "normal" Py_Main, and that signature has appeared in a .h file.

willing to add an os.unlink() line to mhlib's updateline().  The

You'll still have to manually edit it, though...

- warn that fink-installed software may cause trouble
- explain why you might want a framework build and point people to

directly when no comparison function is specified.  This saves a layer
of function call on every compare then.  Measured speedups:

The best indicators are those that take significant time (larger i), and
where sort doesn't do very few compares (so *sort and ~sort benefit most
reliably).  The large numbers are due to roundoff noise combined with
platform variability; e.g., the 14.3% speedup for %sort at i=17 reflects
a printed elapsed time of 0.18 seconds falling to 0.17, but a change in
the last digit isn't really meaningful (indeed, if it really took 0.175
seconds, one electron having a lazy nanosecond could shift it to either
value <wink>).  Similarly the 25% at 3sort i=17 was a meaningless change
from 0.05 to 0.04.  However, almost all the "meaningless changes" were
in the same direction, which is good.  The before-and-after times for
*sort are clearest:

before after
  0.18  0.16
  0.25  0.23
  0.54  0.50
  1.18  1.11
  2.57  2.44
  5.58  5.30
