Neal Norwitz b15ac3169d Add new utility function, reap_children(), to test_support. This should
be called at the end of each test that spawns children (perhaps it
should be called from regrtest instead?).  This will hopefully prevent
some of the unexplained failures in the buildbots (hppa and alpha)
during tests that spawn children.  The problems were not reproducible.
There were many zombies that remained at the end of several tests.
In the worst case, this shouldn't cause any more problems,
though it may not help either.  Time will tell.

Barry Warsaw 04f357cffe Get rid of relative imports in all unittests. Now anything that
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. :)

Tim Peters 3620857d60 The "more" cmd varies across Windows flavors, sometimes adding stray
newlines at the start or end.  Fiddle test_popen2 and popen2._test() to
tolerate this.  Also change all "assert"s in these tests to raise
explicit exceptions, so that python -O doesn't render them useless.
Also, in case of error, make the msg display the reprs of what we
wrote and what we read, so we can tell exactly why it's failing.
