that you can set self.version *after* calling the base class __init__.

Disallow "import mod.submod as m", because the result is ambiguous. Does it
...
load mod.submod as m, or mod as m ? Both can be achieved differently, and
unambiguously. Also attempt to document this restriction (editor
appreciated!)
Note that this is an artificial check during compile, because incorporating
this in the grammar is hard, and then adjusting the compiler to do the right
thing with the right nodes is harder.

As pointed out by Denis S. Otkidach <den@analyt.chem.msu.ru>, xrange()

In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is

Apply SF patch #101135 , adding 'import module as m' and 'from module import
...
name as n'. By doing some twists and turns, "as" is not a reserved word.
There is a slight change in semantics for 'from module import name' (it will
now honour the 'global' keyword) but only in cases that are explicitly
undocumented.

Apply SF patch #101029 : call __getitem__ with a proper slice object if there

is no __getslice__ available. Also does the same for C extension types.
Includes rudimentary documentation (it could use a cross reference to the
section on slice objects, I couldn't figure out how to do that) and a test
suite for all Python __hooks__ I could think of, including the new
behaviour.
