Core and builtins
- Deprecated features of xrange objects have been removed as
promised. The start, stop, and step attributes and the tolist()
method no longer exist. xrange repetition and slicing have been
removed.
- New builtin function enumerate(x), from PEP 279. Example:
enumerate("abc") is an iterator returning (0,"a"), (1,"b"), (2,"c").
The argument can be an arbitrary iterable object.

C API
- PyRange_New() now raises ValueError if the fourth argument is not 1.
This is part of the removal of deprecated features of the xrange
object.
- PyNumber_Coerce() and PyNumber_CoerceEx() now also invoke the type's
coercion if both arguments have the same type but this type has the
CHECKTYPES flag set. This is to better support proxies.
