Gregory P. Smith 0470bab697 Issue #2620: Overflow checking when allocating or reallocating memory 
was not always being done properly in some python types and extension
modules.  PyMem_MALLOC, PyMem_REALLOC, PyMem_NEW and PyMem_RESIZE have
all been updated to perform better checks and places in the code that
would previously leak memory on the error path when such an allocation
failed have been fixed.

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-June/079988.html

Python 2.6 should stick with PyString_* in its codebase.  The PyBytes_* names
in the spirit of 3.0 are available via a #define only.  See the email thread.

Ronald Oussoren 5640ce2f1e MacOS X: Enable 4-way universal builds 
This patch adds a new configure argument on OSX:
        --with-universal-archs=[32-bit|64-bit|all]

When used with the --enable-universalsdk option this controls which
CPU architectures are includes in the framework. The default is 32-bit,
meaning i386 and ppc. The most useful alternative is 'all', which includes
all 4 CPU architectures supported by MacOS X (i386, ppc, x86_64 and ppc64).

This includes limited support for the Carbon bindings in 64-bit mode as well,
limited because (a) I haven't done extensive testing and (b) a large portion
of the Carbon API's aren't available in 64-bit mode anyway.

I've also duplicated a feature of Apple's build of python: setting the
environment variable 'ARCHFLAGS' controls the '-arch' flags used for building
extensions using distutils.

Christian Heimes 6f34109384 I finally got the time to update and merge Mark's and my trunk-math branch. The patch is collaborated work of Mark Dickinson and me. It was mostly done a few months ago.

The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)

Brett Cannon e974689038 Re-implement the 'warnings' module in C. This allows for usage of the 
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.

Closes issue #1631171.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 7adc776ea6 Issue 2408: remove the _types module 
It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
when they can easily be obtained with python code.
These expressions even work with Jython.

I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
at least this change makes it simpler.
