that the move operation and editing of the moved files are separate, for

........
computations with integer arithmetic instead of floating point.
td.total_seconds() now agrees with td / timedelta(seconds = 1).
Thanks Alexander Belopolsky for the patch.
Adds support for the three division operations:
- timedelta / timedelta -> float
- timedelta // timedelta -> int
- timedelta % timedelta -> timedelta
also adds support for divmod(timedelta, timedelta).
Patch by Victor Stinner, adapted for py3k and extended by Alexander
Belopolsky.

Re-enable all tests for windows platforms.
Also, explicitly connect to the IPV4 address. On windows platforms supporting AF_INET6, the SocketProxy would connect using socket.create_connection('localhost', port) which would cycle through all address families and try to connect. It would try connecting using AF_INET6 first and this would cause a delay of up to a second.

Issue 705836: Fix struct.pack(">f", 1e40) to behave consistently
across platforms: it should now raise OverflowError on all
platforms. (Previously it raised OverflowError only on
non IEEE 754 platforms.)
Also fix the (already existing) test for this behaviour
so that it actually raises TestFailed instead of just
referencing it.

#1330538: Improve comparison of xmlrpclib.DateTime and datetime instances.
Remove automatic handling of datetime.date and datetime.time.
This breaks backward compatibility, but python-dev discussion was strongly
against this automatic conversion; see the bug for a link.

Issue #2051 and patch from Alexander Belopolsky:
Permission for pyc and pyo files are inherited from the py file.

formatting.
Includes:
- Modifying tests for basic types to use __format__ methods, instead
of builtin "format".
- Adding PyObject_Format.
- General str/unicode cleanup discovered when backporting to 2.6.
- Removing datetimemodule.c's time_format, since it was identical
to date_format.
The files in Objects/stringlib that implement PEP 3101 (stringdefs.h,
unicodedefs.h, formatter.h, string_format.h) are identical in trunk
and py3k. Any changes from here on should be made to trunk, and
changes will propogate to py3k).
No detailed change log; just check out the change log for the py3k-pep3137
branch. The most obvious changes:
- str8 renamed to bytes (PyString at the C level);
- bytes renamed to buffer (PyBytes at the C level);
- PyString and PyUnicode are no longer compatible.
I.e. we now have an immutable bytes type and a mutable bytes type.
The behavior of PyString was modified quite a bit, to make it more
bytes-like. Some changes are still on the to-do list.
