If MSVCCompiler.initialize() was called multiple times, the path
would get duplicated. On Windows, this is a problem because the

before checking for duplicates so things like /a and /a/ won't both
be stored.

- Bug #1683368 : The object.__init__() and object.__new__() methods are
...
now stricter in rejecting excess arguments. The only time when
either allows excess arguments is when it is not overridden and the
other one is. For backwards compatibility, when both are
overridden, it is a deprecation warning (for now; maybe a Py3k
warning later).
When merging this into 3.0, the warnings should become errors.
Note: without the change to string.py, lots of spurious warnings happen.

This is the implementation of POSIX.1-2001 (pax) format read/write
...
support.
The TarInfo class now contains all necessary logic to process and
create tar header data which has been moved there from the TarFile
class. The fromtarfile() method was added. The new path and linkpath
properties are aliases for the name and linkname attributes in
correspondence to the pax naming scheme.
The TarFile constructor and classmethods now accept a number of
keyword arguments which could only be set as attributes before (e.g.
dereference, ignore_zeros). The encoding and pax_headers arguments
were added for pax support. There is a new tarinfo keyword argument
that allows using subclassed TarInfo objects in TarFile.
The boolean TarFile.posix attribute is deprecated, because now three
tar formats are supported. Instead, the desired format for writing is
specified using the constants USTAR_FORMAT, GNU_FORMAT and PAX_FORMAT
as the format keyword argument. This change affects TarInfo.tobuf()
as well.
The test suite has been heavily reorganized and partially rewritten.
A new testtar.tar was added that contains sample data in many formats
from 4 different tar programs.
Some bugs and quirks that also have been fixed:
Directory names do no longer have a trailing slash in TarInfo.name or
TarFile.getnames().
Adding the same file twice does not create a hardlink file member.
The TarFile constructor does no longer need a name argument.
The TarFile._mode attribute was renamed to mode and contains either
'r', 'w' or 'a'.

Introduce test.test_support.TransientResource. It's a context manager to
...
surround calls to resources that may or may not be available. Specifying the
expected exception and attributes to be raised if the resource is not available
prevents overly broad catching of exceptions.
This is meant to help suppress spurious failures by raising
test.test_support.ResourceDenied if the exception matches. It would probably
be good to go through the various network tests and surround the calls to catch
connection timeouts (as done with test_socket_ssl in this commit).
