Docs still need some updating to make getopt and optparse match the wording promised in the PEP.
There are also probably a number of :class:ArgumentParser etc. links that could be added to the argparse documentation.
MutableMapping, and thereby lost functionality because the replacement
functionality was implemented incorrectly or incompletely). Since bsddb
isn't in py3k, this patch just goes back to using DictMixin in order to
correct the regression.
Noted by Joseph Armbruster; patch by Jessica McKellar.
The original code was 'for (;;) {...}', where ... ended
with a 'return -2' statement and did not contain a 'break' or 'continue'
statement. Therefore, the body of the loop is always executed once.
Once upon a time there was a 'continue' in the loop, but it was removed in
rev36346, committed by mwh on Wed Jul 7 17:44:12 2004.
message/rfc822 it turns it into an object whose body consists of
a list containing a single Message object. HeaderParser, on the
other hand, just copies the body as a string. Generator.flatten
has a special handler for the message mime type that expected the
body to be the one item list. This fails if the message was parsed
by HeaderParser. So we now check to see if the body is a string
first, and if so just we just emit it.
of the 'canonical' and 'is_canonical' methods) now consistently accept
integer arguments wherever a Decimal instance is accepted. Thanks
Juan José Conti for the patch.
writeback=True values are written to the backing store when assigned to
the shelf. Add test to confirm that this happens. Doc patch and added
test by Robert Lehmann. I also fixed the cross references to the sync
and close methods.
close method refers to an identifier in the global module namespace.
This means that when __del__ is called during interpreter shutdown (if,
for example, the calling program still has a pointer to the shelf),
sometimes that global identifier would wind up being None, causing
mysterious 'ignored' exceptions. This patch checks for the possible None
value first before using the global, thus avoiding the error messages.
in XML processing instructions and comments. These raw characters are
allowed by the XML specification, and are necessary when outputting e.g.
PHP code in a processing instruction. Patch by Neil Muller.
and read operations on write-only file objects. On Windows, the system C
library would return a bogus result; on Solaris, it was possible to crash
the interpreter. Patch by Stefan Krah.
In Python 2.x, exceptions in finally blocks are not normalized. Since with
statements are implemented using finally blocks, ceval.c had to be tweaked to
distinguish between with finally blocks and normal ones.
A test for the finalization of generators containing with statements was also
added.

Also, raise ValueError rather than TypeError when an unknown TIPC address
type is specified. Patch by Brian Curtin.
file position when calling `truncate()`. It would previously change the
file position to the given argument, which goes against the tradition of
ftruncate() and other truncation APIs. Patch by Pascal Chambon.
:class:`zipfile.ZipExtFile` class used to represent files stored inside
an archive. The new implementation is significantly faster and can
be wrapped in a :class:`io.BufferedReader` object for more speedups.
It also solves an issue where interleaved calls to `read()` and
`readline()` give wrong results. Patch by Nir Aides.
private memory allocation scheme in dtoa.c, along with a piece of code
that caches powers of 5 for future use. This makes it easier to
detect dtoa.c memory leaks with Valgrind or similar tools.

- Issue #7714: Use ``gcc -dumpversion`` to detect the version of GCC on
MacOSX.
- Make configure look for util.h as well as libutil.h. The former
is the header file that on OSX contains the defition of openpty.

could crash in many places because of the PyByteArray_AS_STRING() macro
returning NULL. The macro now returns a statically allocated empty
string instead.
Also remove some now unused variables, and add comments clarifying the
possible outputs of the parsing section of _Py_dg_strtod. Thanks
Eric Smith for reviewing.

invalid modifications to such parts by Generator. Patch and tests by
Martin von Gagern.
Py3K warnings are DeprecationWarning by default this was causing -3 to
essentially be a no-op. Now DeprecationWarning is only silenced if -3 is not
used.
Closes issue #7700. Thanks Ezio Melotti and Florent Xicluna for patch help.
