Script to regenerate platform-specific modules of constants.
[I moved common paths to variables for easier reading by humans. -- FLD]
This closes SourceForge patch #101781.
Do not assume that all platforms using a MetroWorks compiler can use
POSIX threads; the assumption breaks on BeOS. This fix only helps
for BeOS.
This closes SourceForge patch #101772.
code, in case someone wants to use it as a keyword paramter.
ZIP_DEFLATED description: Do not reveal the specific value of the
constant, since code should only use the symbolic name.
bug #113797. We should be able to resolve this for the next release.
Reflowed the comments on Monterey (64-bit AIX) to match the flow of the
other platform-specific sections.
raise ValueError. Checked in the patch as far as it went, but also changed
all of ints, longs and floats to raise ZeroDivisionError instead when raising
0 to a negative number. This is what 754-inspired stds require, as the "true
result" is an infinity obtained from finite operands, i.e. it's a singularity.
Also changed float pow to not be so timid about using its square-and-multiply
algorithm. Note that what math.pow does is unrelated to what builtin pow
does, and will still vary by platform.
test -d "$directory"

test ! -z "directory" -a -d "directory"
Apparently, on SunOS 4.1.4_JL (and other?) OSes, -d on an empty string
always returns true. This closes SF bug #115392.
result-object-pointer that is passed in, when an exception occurs during
coercion. The pointer has to be explicitly initialized in the caller to avoid
putting trash on the Python stack.
#define'd to an unreasonable value (several recent gcc systems have
misdefined it, causing bogus overflows in integer multiplication). Nuke
CHAR_BIT entirely.
(I had explicitly disabled it a while ago, possibly unecessarily, along with
rgbimg, audioop, and imageop, which are advertised as "not for 64-bit
platforms.)
in earlier versions of Python; this is useful information for people
interested in writing code that is portable across Python versions.

different browsers resolve the conflicts differently, and the "proper"
resolution is not what we actually want.

the names of people that should be in the ACKS file.
This relies on some personal code that is not yet available, but should
be by the time we release 2.0c1.
after unicode_empty has been freed, otherwise it might not point to
the real start of the unicode_freelist. Final closure for SF bug
#110681, Jitterbug PR#398.
