||||
|
||||

|
||||
- Fix the builtin module initialization code to store the init function for
|
||||
future reinitialization.
|
||||
|
||||
- Issue #8052: The posix subprocess module would take a long time closing
|
||||
all possible file descriptors in the child process rather than just open

|
||||
default close_fds=True behavior.

||||

|
||||
an invalid integer value.

||||
|

||||

already accepts them).
|
||||
|
||||
- Issue #13342: input() used to ignore sys.stdin's and sys.stdout's unicode

|
||||
interpreter would sometimes invoke the wrong metaclass when building a new
|
||||
class object. These cases now behave correctly. Patch by Daniel Urban.
|
||||
|
||||
- Issue #12604: VTRACE macro expanded to no-op in _sre.c to avoid compiler
|
||||
warnings. Patch by Josh Triplett and Petri Lehtinen.
|
||||
|
||||
- Issue #13188: When called without an explicit traceback argument,

embedded situations.

|
||||
tuples or lists.
|
||||

- Issue #7732: Don't open a directory as a file anymore while importing a
|
||||
module. Ignore the direcotry if its name matchs the module name (e.g.

||||
"__init__.py") and raise a ImportError instead.

|
||||
list_repeat (listobject.c) and islice_next (itertoolsmodule.c). These bugs
|
||||
caused test failures with recent versions of Clang.
|
||||
|
||||
- Issue #12802: the Windows error ERROR_DIRECTORY (numbered 267) is now
|
||||
mapped to POSIX errno ENOTDIR (previously EINVAL).
