Reverse argument order for nsmallest() and nlargest().
...
Reads better when the iterable is a generator expression.

Improve the memory performance and speed of heapq.nsmallest() by using
...
an alternate algorithm when the number of selected items is small
relative to the full iterable.

Add another test which exercises the whole suite with a
...
heapsort and verifies the result against list.sort().

Added new heapreplace(heap, item) function, to pop (and return) the
...
currently-smallest value, and add item, in one gulp. See the second
N-Best algorithm in the test suite for a natural use.

Minor fiddling, including a simple class to implement a heap iterator
...
in the test file. I have docs for heapq.heapify ready to check in, but
Jack appears to have left behind a stale lock in the Doc/lib directory.

Hmm! I thought I checked this in before! Oh well.

Added new heapify() function, which transforms an arbitrary list into a
heap in linear time; that's a fundamental tool for using heaps in real
life <wink>.
Added heapyify() test. Added a "less naive" N-best algorithm to the test
suite, and noted that this could actually go much faster (building on
heapify()) if we had max-heaps instead of min-heaps (the iterative method
is appropriate when all the data isn't known in advance, but when it is
known in advance the tradeoffs get murkier).

Don't use true division where int division was intended. For that matter,

don't use division at all.
