the more recent versions of that platform, so we use the value (time_t)(-1)
as the error value. This is the type used in the OpenVMS documentation:

This closes SF tracker bug #404240.
Also clean up an exception message when detecting overflow of time_t values
beyond 4 bytes.

Renamed check_case to case_ok. Substantial code rearrangement to get
this stuff in one place in the file. Innermost loop of find_module()
now much simpler and #ifdef-free, and I want to keep it that way (it's
bad enough that the innermost loop is itself still in an #ifdef!).
Windows semantics tested and are fine.
Jason, Cygwin *should* be fine if and only if what you did before "worked"
for case_ok.
Jack, the semantics on your flavor of Mac have definitely changed (see
the PEP), and need to be tested. The intent is that your flavor of Mac
now work the same as everything else in the "lower left" box, including
respecting PYTHONCASEOK.
Steven, sorry, you did the most work here so far but you got screwed the
worst. Happy to work with you on repairing it, but I don't understand
anything about all your Mac variants. We need to add another branch (or
two, three, ...?) inside case_ok. But we should not need to change
anything else.
save the __builtin__ module in a static variable. But this doesn't
work across Py_Finalise()/Py_Initialize()! It also doesn't work when
using multiple interpreter states created with PyInterpreterState_New().
So I'm ripping out this small optimization.
This was probably broken since PyImport_Import() was introduced in
1997! We really need a better test suite for multiple interpreter
states and repeatedly initializing.
This fixes the problems Barry reported in Demo/embed/loop.c.
hooks to take over the Python import machinery at a very early stage
in the Python startup phase.
If there are still places in the Python interpreter which need to
bypass the __import__ hook, these places must now use
PyImport_ImportModuleEx() instead. So far no other places than in
the import mechanism itself have been identified.
They're named as if public, so I did a Bad Thing by changing
PyMarshal_ReadObjectFromFile() to suck up the remainder of the file in one
gulp: anyone who counted on that leaving the file pointer merely at the
end of the next object would be screwed. So restored
PyMarshal_ReadObjectFromFile() to its earlier state, renamed the new greedy
code to PyMarshal_ReadLastObjectFromFile(), and changed Python internals to
call the latter instead.
The majority of the changes are in the compiler. The mainloop changes
primarily to implement the new opcodes and to pass a function's
closure to eval_code2(). Frames and functions got new slots to hold
the closure.
Include/compile.h
Add co_freevars and co_cellvars slots to code objects.
Update PyCode_New() to take freevars and cellvars as arguments
Include/funcobject.h
Add func_closure slot to function objects.
Add GetClosure()/SetClosure() functions (and corresponding
macros) for getting at the closure.
Include/frameobject.h
PyFrame_New() now takes a closure.
Include/opcode.h
Add four new opcodes: MAKE_CLOSURE, LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF,
STORE_DEREF.
Remove comment about old requirement for opcodes to fit in 7
bits.
compile.c
Implement changes to code objects for co_freevars and co_cellvars.
Modify symbol table to use st_cur_name (string object for the name
of the current scope) and st_cur_children (list of nested blocks).
Also define st_nested, which might more properly be called
st_cur_nested. Add several DEF_XXX flags to track def-use
information for free variables.
New or modified functions of note:
com_make_closure(struct compiling *, PyCodeObject *)
Emit LOAD_CLOSURE opcodes as needed to pass cells for free
variables into nested scope.
com_addop_varname(struct compiling *, int, char *)
Emits opcodes for LOAD_DEREF and STORE_DEREF.
get_ref_type(struct compiling *, char *name)
Return NAME_CLOSURE if ref type is FREE or CELL
symtable_load_symbols(struct compiling *)
Decides what variables are cell or free based on def-use info.
Can now raise SyntaxError if nested scopes are mixed with
exec or from blah import *.
make_scope_info(PyObject *, PyObject *, int, int)
Helper functions for symtable scope stack.
symtable_update_free_vars(struct symtable *)
After a code block has been analyzed, it must check each of
its children for free variables that are not defined in the
block. If a variable is free in a child and not defined in
the parent, then it is defined by block the enclosing the
current one or it is a global. This does the right logic.
symtable_add_use() is now a macro for symtable_add_def()
symtable_assign(struct symtable *, node *)
Use goto instead of for (;;)
Fixed bug in symtable where name of keyword argument in function
call was treated as assignment in the scope of the call site. Ex:
def f():
g(a=2) # a was considered a local of f
ceval.c
eval_code2() now take one more argument, a closure.
Implement LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF, STORE_DEREF, MAKE_CLOSURE>
Also: When name error occurs for global variable, report that the
name was global in the error mesage.
Objects/frameobject.c
Initialize f_closure to be a tuple containing space for cellvars
and freevars. f_closure is NULL if neither are present.
Objects/funcobject.c
Add support for func_closure.
Python/import.c
Change the magic number.
Python/marshal.c
Track changes to code objects.
unintentionally caused them to get written in text mode under Windows.
As a result, when .pyc files were later read-- in binary mode --the
magic number was always wrong (note that .pyc magic numbers deliberately
include \r and \n characters, so this was "good" breakage, 100% across
all .pyc files, not random corruption in a subset). Fixed that.
how 'import' was called with a compiletime mechanism: create either a tuple
of the import arguments, or None (in the case of a normal import), add it to
the code-block constants, and load it onto the stack before calling
IMPORT_NAME.
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.
did the same anyway.
I'm not sure what to do with Tools/compiler/compiler/* -- that isn't part of
distutils, is it ? Should it try to be compatible with old bytecode version ?
MAGIC number. When updating it next time, be sure it's higher than 50715 *
constants. (Shouldn't be a problem if everyone keeps to the proper
algorithm.)
This patch fixes possible overflow in the use of
PyOS_GetLastModificationTime in getmtime.c and Python/import.c.
Currently PyOS_GetLastModificationTime returns a C long. This can
overflow on Win64 where sizeof(time_t) > sizeof(long). Besides it
should logically return a time_t anyway (this patch changes this).
As well, import.c uses PyOS_GetLastModificationTime for .pyc
timestamping. There has been recent discussion about the .pyc header
format on python-dev. This patch adds oveflow checking to import.c so
that an exception will be raised if the modification time
overflows. There are a few other minor 64-bit readiness changes made
to the module as well:
- size_t instead of int or long for function-local buffer and string
length variables
- one buffer overflow check was added (raises an exception on possible
overflow, this overflow chance exists on 32-bit platforms as well), no
other possible buffer overflows existed (from my analysis anyway)

(This is not exactly what Vladimir posted to the patches list; I've
made a few changes, and Vladimir sent me a fix in private email for a
problem that only occurs in debug mode. I'm also holding back on his
change to main.c, which seems unnecessary to me.)
Changed all references to the MAGIC constant to use a global
pyc_magic instead. This global is initially set to MAGIC, but can be
changed by the _PyImport_Init() function to provide for
special features implemented in the compiler which are settable
using command line switches and affect the way PYC files are
generated.
Currently this change is only done for the -U flag.
* in import.c, #ifdef out references to dynamic loading based on
HAVE_DYNAMIC_LOADING
* clean out the platform-specific crud from importdl.c.
[ maybe fold this function into import.c and drop the importdl.c file? Greg.]
* change GetDynLoadFunc's "funcname" parameter to "shortname". change
"name" to "fqname" for clarification.
* each GetDynLoadFunc now creates its own funcname value.
WARNING: as I mentioned previously, we may run into an issue with a
missing "_" on some platforms. Testing will show this pretty quickly,
however.
* move pathname munging into dynload_shlib.c
