The proper fix is not quite what was submitted; it's really better to
take the class of the object passed rather than calling PyMethod_New
with NULL pointer args, because that can then cause other core dumps
later.
I also added a testcase for the fix to classmethods() in test_descr.py.
I've already applied this to the 2.2 branch.
(as it is often not on Windows). The code was always designed so that it
would raise an IOError if there was no .netrc. But if there was no $HOME
it would return a KeyError which would be somewhat unexpected for code
that didn't know the algorithm it used to find .netrc. The particular
code that triggered this problem for me was ftpmirror.py which handled
the IOError gracefully, but not the KeyError.
change the installed version on either of the machines I use to format the
docs. Instead, use a compatibility hack to support both versions. This is
also better for external users of the Python styles.

particular, negative indexes work and they are limited by the actual length
of the names they represent (weekday and month names). This closes bug
#503202.
As promised in my response to the bug report, I'm not really fixing
it; in fact, one could argule over what the proper fix should do.
Instead, I'm adding a little magic that raises TypeError if you try to
pickle an instance of a class that has __slots__ but doesn't define or
override __getstate__. This is done by adding a bozo __getstate__
that always raises TypeError.
