a 3-tuple of items (charset, language, value). language is ignored.
_unquotevalue(): Handle both 3-tuple RFC 2231 values and unencoded
values.
_get_params_preserve(): Decode the parameters before returning them.

don't really know if they are correct or not. :(
Someone with Japanese and RFC 2047 expertise, please take a look!
headers with no charset or 'us-ascii' charsets. Actually this is only
partially true: we know about semicolons (but not true parameters) and
we know about whitespace (but not technically folding whitespace).
Still it should be good enough for all practical purposes.
Other changes include:
__init__(): Add a continuation_ws argument, which defaults to a single
space. Set this to change the whitespace used for continuation lines
when a header must be split. Also, changed the way header line
lengths are calculated, so that they take into account continuation_ws
(when tabs-expanded) and any provided header_name parameter. This
should do much better on returning split headers for which the first
and subsequent lines must fit into a specified width.
guess_maxlinelen(): Removed. I don't think we need this method as
part of the public API.
encode_chunks() -> _encode_chunks(): I don't think we need this one as
part of the public API either.
know anything about RFC 2047 encoded headers. Fortunately we have a
perfectly good header splitter in Header.encode(). So we just call
that to give us a properly formatted and split header.
Header.encode() didn't know about "highest-level syntactic breaks" but
that's been fixed now too.
Didn't use the patch, because universal newlines support made it easy.
It might be worth fixing the actual problem in the 2.2 maintenance
branch, in which case the patch is still needed.
Setting the buffer_text attribute to true causes the parser to collect
character data, waiting as long as possible to report it to the Python
callback. This can save an enormous number of callbacks from C to
Python, which can be a substantial performance improvement.
buffer_text defaults to false.
The HTTPResponse class now handles 100 continue responses, instead of
choking on them. It detects them internally in the _begin() method
and ignores them. Based on a patch by Bob Kline.
This closes SF bugs 498149 and 551273.
The FakeSocket class (for SSL) is now usable with HTTP/1.1
connections. The old version of the code could not work with
persistent connections, because the makefile() implementation read
until EOF before returning. If the connection is persistent, the
server sends a response and leaves the connection open. A client that
reads until EOF will block until the server gives up on the connection
-- more than a minute in my test case.
The problem was fixed by implementing a reasonable makefile(). It
reads data only when it is needed by the layers above it. It's
implementation uses an internal buffer with a default size of 8192.
Also, rename begin() method of HTTPResponse to _begin() because it
should only be called by the HTTPConnection.

The default implementation calls _compile() to compile individual
files. This method must be implemented by the subclass. This change
factors out most of the remaining common code in all the compilers
except mwerks.
In a fresh interpreter, type.mro(tuple) would segfault, because
PyType_Ready() isn't called for tuple yet. To fix, call
PyType_Ready(type) if type->tp_dict is NULL.
Use a repr() on the subprocess side when fetching dict values for stack.
The various dict entities are not needed by the debugger GUI, only
their representation.
These built-in functions are replaced by their (now callable) type:
slice()
buffer()
and these types can also be called (but have no built-in named
function named after them)
classobj (type name used to be "class")
code
function
instance
instancemethod (type name used to be "instance method")
The module "new" has been replaced with a small backward compatibility
placeholder in Python.
A large portion of the patch simply removes the new module from
various platform-specific build recipes. The following binary Mac
project files still have references to it:
Mac/Build/PythonCore.mcp
Mac/Build/PythonStandSmall.mcp
Mac/Build/PythonStandalone.mcp
[I've tweaked the code layout and the doc strings here and there, and
added a comment to types.py about StringTypes vs. basestring. --Guido]
They still run as standalone scripts, but when used as part of the
regression test suite, they are effectively no-ops.
(This is done by renaming test_main to main.)
473985. Through a subtle rearrangement of some members in the etype
struct (!), mapping methods are now preferred over sequence methods,
which is necessary to support str.__getitem__("hello", slice(4)) etc.
Two new tests are needed:
Don't skip building an extension if any of the depends files are newer
than the target.
Pass ext.depends to compiler.compile() so that it can track individual
files.
Always use _setup_compile() to do the grunt work of processing
arguments, figuring out which files to compile, and emitting debug
messages for files that are up-to-date.
Use _get_cc_args() when possible.
This change is not backwards compatible. If a compiler subclass
exists outside the distutils package, it may get called with the
unexpected keyword arg. It's easy to extend that compiler by having
it ignore the argument, and not much harder to do the right thing. If
this ends up being burdensome, we can change it before 2.3 final to
work harder at compatibility.
Also add _setup_compile() and _get_cc_args() helper functions that
factor out much of the boilerplate for each concrete compiler class.
that retries the connect() call in timeout mode so it can be shared
between connect() and connect_ex(), and needs only a single #ifdef.
The test for this was doing funky stuff I don't approve of,
so I removed it in favor of a simpler test. This allowed me
to implement a simpler, "purer" form of the timeout retry code.
Hopefully that's enough (if you want to be fancy, use non-blocking
mode and decode the errors yourself, like before).
Remove __init__ that just called base class __init__ with same args.
Fold long argument lists into fewer, shorter lines.
Remove parens in tuple unpacks.
Don't put multiple statements on one line with a semicolon.
In find_library_file() compute the library_filename() upfront.
- setblocking(0) and settimeout(0) are now equivalent, and ditto for
setblocking(1) and settimeout(None).
- Don't raise an exception from internal_select(); let the final call
report the error (this means you will get an EAGAIN error instead of
an ETIMEDOUT error -- I don't care).
- Move the select to inside the Py_{BEGIN,END}_ALLOW_THREADS brackets,
so other theads can run (this was a bug in the original code).
- Redid the retry logic in connect() and connect_ex() to avoid masking
errors. This probably doesn't work for Windows yet; I'll fix that
next. It may also fail on other platforms, depending on what
retrying a connect does; I need help with this.
- Get rid of the retry logic in accept(). I don't think it was needed
at all. But I may be wrong.
This was a simple typo. Strange that the compiler didn't catch it!
Instead of WHY_CONTINUE, two tests used CONTINUE_LOOP, which isn't a
why_code at all, but an opcode; but even though 'why' is declared as
an enum, comparing it to an int is apparently not even worth a
warning -- not in gcc, and not in VC++. :-(
Will fix in 2.2 too.

transformed them into the initial_indent and subsequent_indent instance

This is essentially the same problem as that reported in bug 494904

same way it treats instances of type 'type'.
Bugfix candidate.
and fill() methods. Keep interface of existing wrap() and fill()
functions by going back to having them construct a new TextWrapper
instance on each call, with the preferred width passed to the
constructor.
sentences are separated by two spaces.
Improve _fix_sentence_endings() a bit -- look for ".!?" instead of just
".", and factor out the list of sentence-ending punctuation characters
to a class attribute.
I've made considerable changes to Michael's code, specifically to use
the select() system call directly and to store the timeout as a C
double instead of a Python object; internally, -1.0 (or anything
negative) represents the None from the API.
I'm not 100% sure that all corner cases are covered correctly, so
please keep an eye on this. Next I'm going to try it Windows before
Tim complains.
No way is this a bugfix candidate. :-)
Straightforward fix. Will backport to 2.2. If there's ever a new 2.1

This is a conservative version of SF patch 504889. It uses the log
module instead of calling print in various places, and it ignores the
verbose argument passed to many functions and set as an attribute on
some objects. Instead, it uses the verbosity set on the logger via
the command line.
The log module is now preferred over announce() and warn() methods
that exist only for backwards compatibility.
XXX This checkin changes a lot of modules that have no test suite and
aren't exercised by the Python build process. It will need
substantial testing.
While I was at it, I added a tp_clear handler and changed the
tp_dealloc handler to use the clear_slots helper for the tp_clear
handler.
Also tightened the rules for slot names: they must now be proper
identifiers (ignoring the dirty little fact that <ctype.h> is locale
sensitive).
Also set mp->flags = READONLY for the __weakref__ pseudo-slot.
Most of this is a 2.2 bugfix candidate; I'll apply it there myself.
# XXX this isn't used anywhere, and worse, it has the same name as a method

Yes. Nuke it.
modules, distutils does not understand that the build version of the
source tree is needed.
This patch fixes distutils.sysconfig to understand that the running
Python is part of the build tree and needs to use the appropriate
"shape" of the tree. This does not assume anything about the current
directory, so can be used to build 3rd-party modules using Python's
build tree as well.
This is useful since it allows us to use a non-installed debug-mode
Python with 3rd-party modules for testing. It as the side-effect that
set_python_build() is no longer needed (the hack which was added to
allow distutils to be used to build the "standard" extension modules).
This closes SF patch #547734.
BOM_UTF32, BOM_UTF32_LE and BOM_UTF32_BE that represent the Byte
Order Mark in UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 encodings for little and
big endian systems.

This closes SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/555360
Change the module constructor (module_init) to have the signature
__init__(name:str, doc=None); this prevents the call from type_new()
to succeed. While we're at it, prevent repeated calling of
module_init for the same module from leaking the dict, changing the
semantics so that __dict__ is only initialized if NULL.
Also adding a unittest, test_module.py.
This is an incompatibility with 2.2, if anybody was instantiating the
module class before, their argument list was probably empty; so this
can't be backported to 2.2.x.
The HTTPError class tries to act as a regular response objects for
HTTP protocol errors that include full responses. If the failure is
more basic, like no valid response, the __init__ choked when it tried
to initialize its superclasses in addinfourl hierarchy that requires a
valid response.
The solution isn't elegant but seems to be effective. Do not
initialize the base classes if there isn't a file object containing
the response. In this case, user code expecting to use the addinfourl
methods will fail; but it was going to fail anyway.
It might be cleaner to factor out HTTPError into two classes, only one
of which inherits from addinfourl. Not sure that the extra complexity
would lead to any improved functionality, though.
Partial fix for SF bug # 563665.
Bug fix candidate for 2.1 and 2.2.
-f/--fromfile <filename>
option. This runs all and only the tests named in the file, in the
order given (although -x may weed that list, and -r may shuffle it).
Lines starting with '#' are ignored.
This goes a long way toward helping to automate the binary-search-like
procedure I keep reinventing by hand when a test fails due to interaction
among tests (no failure in isolation, and some unknown number of
predecessor tests need to run first -- now you can stick all the test
names in a file, and comment/uncomment blocks of lines until finding a
minimal set of predecessors).
__call__() can be 2-3x slower than the equivalent normal method.
_handle_message(): The structure of message/rfc822 message has
changed. Now parent's payload is a list of length 1, and the zeroth
element is the Message sub-object. Adjust the printing of such
message trees to reflect this change.
There's some wierdness here, but the test ran before and not after,
so I'm just hacking the change out. Someone more motivated than
me can work out what's really happening.
Raymond: *PLEASE* run the test suite before checking things like
this in!
subclasses.
MIMENonMultipart: Base class for non-multipart/* content type subclass
specializations, e.g. image/gif. This class overrides attach() which
raises an exception, since it makes no sense to attach a subpart to
e.g. an image/gif message.
MIMEMultipart: Base class for multipart/* content type subclass
specializations, e.g. multipart/mixed. Does little more than provide
a useful constructor.
If a rexec instance allows writing in the current directory (a common
thing to do), there's a way to execute bogus bytecode. Fix this by
not allowing imports from .pyc files (in a way that allows a site to
configure things so that .pyc files *are* allowed, if writing is not
allowed).
I'll apply this to 2.2 and 2.1 too.
- Add comment explaining the structure of the stack.
- Minor optimization: make stack tuple directly usable as part of return
value for enter/exit events.

fixed an old buglet that caused bdb to be unable to
continue in the botframe, after a breakpoint was set.
the key idea is not to set botframe to the bottom level frame,
but its f_back, which actually might be None.
Additional changes: migrated old exception trick to use
sys._getframe(), which exists both in 2.1 and 2.2 .
Note: I believe Mark Hammond needs to look over his code now.
F5 correctly starts up in the debugger, but later on doesn't stop at a given

A MemoryError is now raised when the list cannot be created.
There is a test, but as the comment says, it really only
works for 32 bit systems. I don't know how to improve
the test for other systems (ie, 64 bit or systems
where the data size != addressable size,
e.g. 64 bit data, but 48 bit addressable memory)
instead of calling the getaddrlist() method, since the latter doesn't
work with multiple calls (it will return the empty list for the second
and subsequent calls).

email package's Parser to handle the three common line endings.
Certain protocols such as IMAP define CRLF line endings and it doesn't
make sense for the client app to have to normalize the line endings
before handing it message off to the Parser.
_parsebody(): Be more flexible in the matching of line endings for
finding the MIME separators. Accept any of \r, \n and \r\n. Note
that we do /not/ change the line endings in the payloads, we just
accept any of those three around MIME boundaries.
single byte character sets. Also fixed a semantic problem with the
constructor's default arguments. Specifically,
__init__(): Change the maxlinelen argument default to None instead of
MAXLINELEN. The semantics should have been (and now are) that if
maxlinelen is given it is always honored. If it isn't given, but
header_name is given, then the maximum line length is calculated. If
neither are given then the default 76 characters is used.
_split(): If the character set is a single byte character set then we
can split the line at the maxlinelen because we know that encoding the
header won't increase its length. If the charset isn't a single byte
charset then we use the quicker divide-and-conquer line splitting
algorithm as before.
for the email package. The former is now just a shell project that
has some extra files for packaging for independent use (e.g. setup.py
and README).
Added a compatibility layer so that the same API can be used in Python
2.1 and 2.2/2.3 with the major differences shuffled off into helper
modules (_compat21.py and _compat22.py).

returned a proxy for __class__ whose __bases__ was also a proxy. The
merge_class_dict() helper for dir() assumed incorrectly that __bases__
would always be a tuple and used the in-line tuple API on the proxy.
I will backport this to 2.2 as well.
test if 'callable' has not been supplied is to test for None instead of
False. The previous correction to 'if callable()' was wrong because an unusable
callback would be ignored rather than raising an exception.
and the .seed() and .whseed() methods failed to reset it. In other
words, setting the seed didn't completely determine the sequence of
results produced by random.gauss(). It does now. Programs repeatedly
mixing calls to a seed method with calls to gauss() may see different
results now.
Bugfix candidate (random.gauss() has always been broken in this way),
despite that it may change results.
This now does a dynamic analysis of which elements are so frequently
repeated as to constitute noise. The primary benefit is an enormous
speedup in find_longest_match, as the innermost loop can have factors
of 100s less potential matches to worry about, in cases where the
sequences have many duplicate elements. In effect, this zooms in on
sequences of non-ubiquitous elements now.
While I like what I've seen of the effects so far, I still consider
this experimental. Please give it a try!
On Win2K it thought 'foo' started at byte offset 0 instead of at the
pagesize, and on Win98 it thought 'foo' didn't exist at all. Somehow
or other this is related to the new "in memory file" gimmicks in
bsddb, but the old bsddb we use on Windows sucks so bad anyway I don't
want to bother digging deeper. Flushing the file in test_mmap after
writing to it makes the problem go away, so good enough.
build's "undetected error" problems were originally detected with
extension types, but we can whitebox test the same situations with

enabled (which they aren't yet, by default). I don't know whether the
test will also fail on Linux now.
SF bug #522264 reported by Evelyn Mitchell.
The code included a comment about "STAR STAR" which was translated
into the code as the bogus attribute token.STARSTAR. This name never
caused an attribute error because it was never retrieved. The code
was based on an old version of the grammar that specified kwargs as
two tokens ('*' '*'). I checked as far back as 2.1 and didn't find
this production.
The fix is simple, because token.DOUBLESTAR is the only token
allowed. Also update the grammar fragment in com_arglist().
XXX I'll bet lots of other grammar fragments in comments are out of
date, probably in this module and in compile.c.
Close a file before trying to unlink it, and apparently Cygwin needs
writes to an mmap'ed file to get flushed before they're visible.
Bugfix candidate, but I think only for the 2.2 line (it's testing
features that I think were new in 2.2).
Change type_get_doc (the get function for __doc__) to look in tp_dict
more often, and if it finds a descriptor in tp_dict, to call it (with
a NULL instance). This means you can add a __doc__ descriptor to a
new-style class that returns instance docs when called on an instance,
and class docs when called on a class -- or the same docs in either
case, but lazily computed.
I'll also check this into the 2.2 maintenance branch.
If a str or unicode method returns the original object,

which requires that if there are ehlo parameters returned with an ehlo

in the ehlo keyword).
This is a bug fix candidate.
Add a method zfill to str, unicode and UserString and change
Lib/string.py accordingly.
This activates the zfill version in unicodeobject.c that was
commented out and implements the same in stringobject.c. It also
adds the test for unicode support in Lib/string.py back in and
uses repr() instead() of str() (as it was before Lib/string.py 1.62)
In DatagramRequestHandler.setup(), the wfile initialization should be
StringIO.StringIO(), not StringIO.StringIO(slf.packet).

Highlights: import and friends will understand any of \r, \n and \r\n
as end of line. Python file input will do the same if you use mode 'U'.
Everything can be disabled by configuring with --without-universal-newlines.

Add optional arg to string methods strip(), lstrip(), rstrip().
The optional arg specifies characters to delete.
Also for UserString.
Still to do:
- Misc/NEWS
- LaTeX docs (I did the docstrings though)
- Unicode methods, and Unicode support in the string methods.
The test function's signature should be
test(methodname, input, output, *args)
but the output argument was omitted. This caused all tests to fail,
because the expected output was passed as the initial argument to the
method call. But because of the way the test works (it compares the
results for a regular string to the results for a UserString instance
with the same value, and it's OK if both raise the same exception) the
test never failed!
I've fixed this, and also cleaned up a few warts in the verbose
output. Finally, I've made it possible to run the test stand-alone in
verbose mode by passing -v as a command line argument.
Now, the test will report failure related to zfill. That's not my
fault, that's a legitimate problem: the string_tests.py file contains
a test for the zfill() method (just added) but this method is not
implemented. The responsible party will surely fix this soon now.
non-us-ascii character sets in headers and bodies. Some API changes
(with DeprecationWarnings for the old APIs). Better RFC-compliant

Change pickling format for bools to use a backwards compatible
encoding. This means you can pickle True or False on Python 2.3
and Python 2.2 or before will read it back as 1 or 0. The code
used for pickling bools before would create pickles that could
not be read in previous Python versions.
ContentHandler. While GC will eventually clean up, it can take longer than
normal for applications that create a lot of strings (or other immutables)
rather without creating many containers.
This closes SF bug #535474.
PEP 285. Everything described in the PEP is here, and there is even
some documentation. I had to fix 12 unit tests; all but one of these
were printing Boolean outcomes that changed from 0/1 to False/True.
(The exception is test_unicode.py, which did a type(x) == type(y)
style comparison. I could've fixed that with a single line using
issubtype(x, type(y)), but instead chose to be explicit about those
places where a bool is expected.
Still to do: perhaps more documentation; change standard library
modules to return False/True from predicates.

I really can't test this, but from reading the discussion in that bug

Walter Doerwald provided a patch, which I've modified in two ways:
1) (Uncontroversial) Removed code to make module work in earlier versions of
Python without the unicode() built-in
2) (Poss. controversial) Instead of making string.zfill take the repr()
of non-string objects, take the str().
Should a warning be added to this branch of the code so that the automatic
str() can be deprecated?

recommended that the fqdn hostname be provided in the EHLO/HELO verb
and if that can't be calculated, to use a domain literal.
The rationale for this change is documented in SF patch #497736 which
also had privacy concerns about leaking the fqdn in the EHLO/HELO. We
decided this wasn't a big concern because no user data is leaked, and
the IP will always be leaked. The local_hostname argument is provided
for those clients that are super paranoid.
Using localhost.localdomain may break some strict smtp servers so we
decided against using it as the default.
This fixes the symptom, but PRINT_ITEM has no way to know what (if
anything) PyFile_WriteObject() writes unless the object being printed
is a string. When the object isn't a string, this fix retains the
guess that softspace should be set after PyFile_WriteObject().
We might want to say that it's the job of filelike-object write methods
to leave the file's softspace in the correct state. That would probably
be better -- but everyone relies on PRINT_ITEM to guess for them now.
One more time on this turkey, but duller instead of cleverer.
Curious: The docs say __getslice__ has been deprecated since 2.0, but
list.__getitem__ still doesn't work if you pass it a slice. This makes
it a lot clearer to emulate a list by *being* a list <wink>.
Bugfix candidate. Michael, just pile this patch on top of the others
that went by -- no need to try to pick these apart.
* 'macdef' (macro definition) wasn't parsed correctly
* account value not reset for a subsequent 'default' line
* typo: 'whitepace' -> 'whitespace'
Bugfix candidate.
This patch makes it possible to pass Warning instances as the first
argument to warnings.warn. In this case the category argument
will be ignored. The message text used will be str(warninginstance).
FakeSocket class. Without it, the sendall() call got the method on
the underlying socket object, and that messed up SSL.
Does httplib use other methods of sockets that FakeSocket doesn't support?
Someone should take a look... (I'll try to give it a once-over.)
2.2.1 bugfix candidate.
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.
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.
Bugfix candidate (also the checkin to typeobject.c, of course).
and (b) stop trying to prevent file growth.
Beef up the file.truncate() docs.
Change test_largefile.py to stop assuming that f.truncate() moves the
file pointer to the truncation point, and to verify instead that it leaves
the file position alone. Remove the test for what happens when a
specified size exceeds the original file size (it's ill-defined, according
to the Single Unix Spec).
dropping MS's inadequate _chsize() function. This was inspired by
SF patch 498109 ("fileobject truncate support for win32"), which I
rejected.
libstdtypes.tex: Someone who knows should update the availability
blurb. For example, if it's available on Linux, it would be good to
say so.
test_largefile: Uncommented the file.truncate() tests, and reworked to
do more. The old comment about "permission errors" in the truncation
tests under Windows was almost certainly due to that the file wasn't open
for *write* access at this point, so of course MS wouldn't let you
truncate it. I'd be appalled if a Unixish system did.
CAUTION: Someone should run this test on Linux (etc) too. The
truncation part was commented out before. Note that test_largefile isn't
run by default.
Adapter from SF patch 528038; fixes SF bug 527816.
The wrapper for __nonzero__ should be wrap_inquiry rather than
wrap_unaryfunc, since the slot returns an int, not a PyObject *.
In August, Greg said this looked good, so I'm going ahead with it.
The fix is different from the one in the bug report. Instead of using
a regular expression to extract the host from the url, I use
urlparse.urlsplit.
Martin commented that the patch doesn't address URLs that have basic
authentication username and password in the header. I don't see any
code anywhere in httplib that supports this feature, so I'm not going
to address it for this fix.
Bug fix candidate.
asyncore.poll, the select fails with EINTR, which the
code catches. However, the code fails to clear the
r/w/e arrays (like poll3 does), which means it acts as
if every descriptor had received all possible events.
Bug report and patch by Cesar Eduardo Barros
mmap_find_method(): this obtained the string to find via s#, but it
ignored its length, acting as if it were \0-terminated instead.
Someone please run on Linux too (the extended test_mmap works on Windows).
Bugfix candidate.
Due to the bizarre definition of _PyLong_Copy(), creating an instance
of a subclass of long with a negative value could cause core dumps
later on. Unfortunately it looks like the behavior of _PyLong_Copy()
is quite intentional, so the fix is more work than feels comfortable.
This fix is almost, but not quite, the code that Naofumi Honda added;
in addition, I added a test case.
rexec.
When using a restricted environment, imports of copy will fail with an
AttributeError when trying to access types.CodeType.
Bugfix candidate (all the way back to 1.5.3, but at least 2.1.3 and
2.2.1).
- Use substring search, not re search for user-agent and paths.
- Consider * entry last. Unquote, then requote URLs.
- Treat empty Disallow as "allow everything".
Add test cases. Fixes#523041
There were never tests for the fact that list() always returns a *new*
list object, even when the argument is a list, while tuple() may
return a reference to the argument when it is a tuple. Now there are.
Windows: apply normcase() as well as abspath(). (Note: this isn't
needed to make IDLE work, but it's a good idea anyway.)
Bugfix candidate -- both 2.2.1 and 2.1.3.
