SF bug 535905 (Evil Trashcan and GC interaction).
The SETLOCAL() macro should not DECREF the local variable in-place and
then store the new value; it should copy the old value to a temporary
value, then store the new value, and then DECREF the temporary value.
This is because it is possible that during the DECREF the frame is
accessed by other code (e.g. a __del__ method or gc.collect()) and the
variable would be pointing to already-freed memory.
BUGFIX CANDIDATE!
descriptor, as used for the tp_methods slot of a type. These new flag
bits are both optional, and mutually exclusive. Most methods will not
use either. These flags are used to create special method types which
exist in the same namespace as normal methods without having to use
tedious construction code to insert the new special method objects in
the type's tp_dict after PyType_Ready() has been called.
If METH_CLASS is specified, the method will represent a class method
like that returned by the classmethod() built-in.
If METH_STATIC is specified, the method will represent a static method
like that returned by the staticmethod() built-in.
These flags may not be used in the PyMethodDef table for modules since
these special method types are not meaningful in that case; a
ValueError will be raised if these flags are found in that context.
This fixes the symptom, but PRINT_ITEM has no way to know what (if
anything) PyFile_WriteObject() writes unless the object being printed
is a string. When the object isn't a string, this fix retains the
guess that softspace should be set after PyFile_WriteObject().
We might want to say that it's the job of filelike-object write methods
to leave the file's softspace in the correct state. That would probably
be better -- but everyone relies on PRINT_ITEM to guess for them now.
A file-static "threads" dict mapped thread IDs to Windows handles, but
was never referenced, and entries never got removed. This gets rid of
the YAGNI-dict entirely.
Bugfix candidate.

Fix for the UTF-8 decoder: it will now accept isolated surrogates
(previously it raised an exception which causes round-trips to
fail).
Added new tests for UTF-8 round-trip safety (we rely on UTF-8 for
marshalling Unicode objects, so we better make sure it works for
all Unicode code points, including isolated surrogates).
Bumped the PYC magic in a non-standard way -- please review. This
was needed because the old PYC format used illegal UTF-8 sequences
for isolated high surrogates which now raise an exception.
By default every module is imported in its own namespace, but this can
be changed by defining USE_DYLD_GLOBAL_NAMESPACE. In a future version this
define will be replaced by a runtime setting, but that needs a bit more
thought.
This code is largely based on code and feedback from Steven Majewski,
Marcel Prastawa, Manoj Plakal and other on pythonmac-sig.
type.__module__ problems (again?)
This simply initializes the __module__ local in a class statement from
the __name__ global. I'm not 100% sure that this is the correct fix,
although it usually does the right thing. The problem is that if the
class statement executes in a custom namespace, the __name__ global
may be taken from __builtins__, in which case it would have the value
__builtin__, or it may not exist at all (if the custom namespace also
has a custom __builtins__), in which case the class statement will
fail.
Nevertheless, unless someone finds a better solution, this is a 2.2.1
bugfix too.
eval_frame(): Under -Qnew, INPLACE_DIVIDE wasn't getting handed off to
INPLACE_TRUE_DIVIDE (like BINARY_DIVIDE was getting handed off to
BINARY_TRUE_DIVIDE).
Bugfix candidate.
(ditto for PyMem_Free() -> PyMem_FREE()) to fix and close SF bug
#495875 on systems that HAVE_SNPRINTF=0.
Check in on both release-22 branch and trunk.
Based on the patch from Danny Yoo. The fix is in exec_statement() in
ceval.c.
There are also changes to introduce use of PyCode_GetNumFree() in
several places.
was obviously leaking an int object when whatever the heck it's looking for
was found. Repaired that. This accounts for why entering function and
class definitions at an interactive prompt leaked a reference to the
integer 1 each time.
Bugfix candidate.
still fail on importing modules that link with libraries that fail
their initialization code (such as windowing libraries when we don't have
access to the window server) and that is what I really wanted to fix.
Had nothing to do with rich comparisons -- some stack cleanup code was
lost as a result of merging in Neil Schemenauer's generators patch.
Reinserted the stack cleanup code, skipping it when yielding.
leak when a class defined a __metaclass__. This fixes the problem
reported on python-dev by Ping; I dunno if it's the same as SF bug
#489669 (since that mentions Unicode).
Big Hammer to implement -Qnew as PEP 238 says it should work (a global
option affecting all instances of "/").
pydebug.h, main.c, pythonrun.c: define a private _Py_QnewFlag flag, true
iff -Qnew is passed on the command line. This should go away (as the
comments say) when true division becomes The Rule. This is
deliberately not exposed to runtime inspection or modification: it's
a one-way one-shot switch to pretend you're using Python 3.
ceval.c: when _Py_QnewFlag is set, treat BINARY_DIVIDE as
BINARY_TRUE_DIVIDE.
test_{descr, generators, zipfile}.py: fiddle so these pass under
-Qnew too. This was just a matter of s!/!//! in test_generators and
test_zipfile. test_descr was trickier, as testbinop() is passed
assumptions that "/" is the same as calling a "__div__" method; put
a temporary hack there to call "__truediv__" instead when the method
name is "__div__" and 1/2 evaluates to 0.5.
Three standard tests still fail under -Qnew (on Windows; somebody
please try the Linux tests with -Qnew too! Linux runs a whole bunch
of tests Windows doesn't):
test_augassign
test_class
test_coercion
I can't stay awake longer to stare at this (be my guest). Offhand
cures weren't obvious, nor was it even obvious that cures are possible
without major hackery.
Question: when -Qnew is in effect, should calls to __div__ magically
change into calls to __truediv__? See "major hackery" at tail end of
last paragraph <wink>.
