in the stdlib and changed each of them to use "open" instead. At this
time there are no other known occurrences that can be safely changed (in
Lib and all subdirectories thereof).
[ 1180995 ] binary formats for marshalling floats
Adds 2 new type codes for marshal (binary floats and binary complexes), a
new marshal version (2), updates MAGIC and fiddles the de-serializing of
code objects to be less likely to clobber the real reason for failing if
it fails.
See there for a description.
Added test case.
Bugfix candidate for 2.2.x, not sure about previous versions:
probably low priority, because virtually no one runs debug builds.
imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".
This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
Lib/email/test/data).
Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)
