Python-Dev. Fixed typos in test comments. Added some trivial new test
guts to show the parallelism (now) among __delitem__, __setitem__ and
__getitem__ wrt error conditions.
Still a bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 final, but waiting for Fred to get a
chance to chime in.
Someone review this, please! Final releases are getting close, Fred
(the weakref guy) won't be around until Tuesday, and the pre-patch
code can indeed raise spurious RuntimeErrors in the presence of
threads or mutating comparison functions.
See the bug report for my confusions: I can't see any reason for why
__delitem__ iterated over the keys. The new one-liner implementation
is much faster, can't raise RuntimeError, and should be better-behaved
in all respects wrt threads.
New tests test_weak_keyed_bad_delitem and
test_weak_keyed_cascading_deletes fail before this patch.
Bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 too, if someone else agrees with this patch.
and test_support.run_classtests() into run_unittest()
and use it wherever possible.
Also don't use "from test.test_support import ...", but
"from test import test_support" in a few spots.
From SF patch #662807.
* Adds missing pop() methods to weakref.py
* Expands test suite to broaden coverage of objects with
a mapping interface.

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. :)
