to "sys.platform == 'mac'" and that is
dead code because it refers to a platform
that is no longer supported (and hasn't been
supported for several releases).

Fixes issue #7908 for the trunk.

Yukihiro Nakadaira noticed a typo in encode_7or8bit that was trying
to special case iso-2022 codecs.  It turns out that the code in
question is never used, because whereas it was designed to trigger
if the payload encoding was eight bit but its output encoding was
7 bit, in practice the payload is always converted to the 7bit
encoding before encode_7or8bit is called.  Patch by Shawat Anand.

Debian unhappy.  The actual contents of the audio clip are unimportant, so
replace it with something that we know is okay.  Guido likes woodpeckers.

this makes sure that the child does not continue
testing.

OSX 10.6 in that after os.fork() the parent and
child generate the same sequence of UUIDs.

This patch falls back to the the Python implementation
on OSX 10.6 or later.

Fixes issue #8621.

calling a foreign function.  This allows to use the unmodified libffi
library.

Remove most files from _ctypes/libffi_msvc, only two include files
stay (updated from _ctypes/libffi/...).  Other files are used in the
cross-platform _ctypes/libffi directory.

any non-float non-integer argument is now converted to an integer (if
possible) using its __int__ method.  Previously, only small arguments
were treated this way; larger arguments (those whose __int__ was
outside the range of a C long) would produce a TypeError.

Patch by Alexander Belopolsky (with minor modifications).

When a Decimal operation raises multiple signals and more than one of
those signals is trapped, the specification determines the order in
which the signals should be handled.  In many cases this order wasn't
being followed, leading to the wrong Python exception being raised.
This commit fixes those cases, and adds extra tests.  The tests are
only enabled when EXTENDEDERRORTESTS is True, since they involve
rerunning each Decimal testcase several times.
