When performing a POST request, i.e. when the second argument to

urlopen is used to specify form data, make sure the second argument is
threaded through all of the http_error_NNN calls. This allows error
handlers like the redirect and authorization handlers to properly
re-start the connection.

Patch by Lars Wirzenius:
...
o the initial comment is wrong: creating messages is already
implemented
o Message.getbodytext: if the mail or it's part contains an
empty content-transfer-encoding header, the code used to
break; the change below treats an empty encoding value the same
as the other types that do not need decoding
o SubMessage.getbodytext was missing the decode argument; the
change below adds it; I also made it unconditionally return
the raw text if decoding was not desired, because my own
routines needed that (and it was easier than rewriting my
own routines ;-)

(initerrors): Make sure that the exception tuples ("base-classes" when

string-based exceptions are used) reflect the real class hierarchy,

Document the correct class hierarchy for SystemExit. It is not an

error and so it derives from Exception and not SystemError. The
docstring was incorrect but the implementation was fine.

Patch by Tim Peters to improve the range checks for range() and
...
xrange(), especially for platforms where int and long are different
sizes (so sys.maxint isn't actually the theoretical limit for the
length of a list, but the largest C int is -- sys.maxint is the
largest Python int, which is actually a C long).

Patch by Tadayoshi Funaba (with some changes) to be smarter about
...
guessing what happened when strftime() returns 0. Is it buffer
overflow or was the result simply 0 bytes long? (This happens for an
empty format string, or when the format string is a single %Z and the
timezone is unknown.) if the buffer is at least 256 times as long as
the format, assume the latter.
