Andrew M. Kuchling b64d61369a #2560: remove an unnecessary 'for' loop from my_fgets() in Parser/myreadline.c.
Noted by Joseph Armbruster; patch by Jessica McKellar.

The original code was 'for (;;) {...}', where ... ended
with a 'return -2' statement and did not contain a 'break' or 'continue'
statement.  Therefore, the body of the loop is always executed once.

Once upon a time there was a 'continue' in the loop, but it was removed in
rev36346, committed by mwh on Wed Jul 7 17:44:12 2004.

R. David Murray 51f1204590 Issue 7970: When email.Parser.Parser parses a MIME message of type
message/rfc822 it turns it into an object whose body consists of
a list containing a single Message object.  HeaderParser, on the
other hand, just copies the body as a string.  Generator.flatten
has a special handler for the message mime type that expected the
body to be the one item list.  This fails if the message was parsed
by HeaderParser.  So we now check to see if the body is a string
first, and if so just we just emit it.

R. David Murray 63e4fd7eef Issue 7835: Shelve's __del__ method calls its close method, and its
close method refers to an identifier in the global module namespace.
This means that when __del__ is called during interpreter shutdown (if,
for example, the calling program still has a pointer to the shelf),
sometimes that global identifier would wind up being None, causing
mysterious 'ignored' exceptions.  This patch checks for the possible None
value first before using the global, thus avoiding the error messages.

Brett Cannon 6fdd3dcb6a DeprecationWarning is now silent by default.
This was originally suggested by Guido, discussed on the stdlib-sig mailing
list, and given the OK by Guido directly to me. What this change essentially
means is that Python has taken a policy of silencing warnings that are only
of interest to developers by default. This should prevent users from seeing
warnings which are triggered by an application being run against a new
interpreter before the app developer has a chance to update their code.

Closes issue #7319. Thanks to Antoine Pitrou, Ezio Melotti, and Brian Curtin
for helping with the issue.

Ronald Oussoren 92919a66d2 Issue #6834: replace the implementation for the 'python' and 'pythonw' executables on OSX.
The previous implementation used execv(2) to run the real interpreter, which means that
you cannot use the arch(1) tool to select the architecture you want to use for a
universal build because that only affects the python/pythonw wrapper and not the actual
interpreter.

The new version uses posix_spawnv with a number of OSX-specific options that ensure that
the real interpreter is started using the same CPU architecture as the wrapper, and that
means that 'arch -ppc python' now actually works.

I've also changed the way that the wrapper looks for the framework: it is now linked to
the framework rather than hardcoding the framework path. This should make it easier to
provide pythonw support in tools like virtualenv.

R. David Murray 77e48ba993 Issue #7376: When called with no arguments doctest was running a
self-test.  Because of a change to the way tracebacks are printed,
this self-test was failing.  The test is run (and passes) during normal
regression testing.  So instead of running the failing self-test this
patch makes doctest emit a usage message.  This is better behavior anyway
since passing in arguments is the real reason to run doctest as a command.

Lars Gustäbel 92ca7561bb Issue #7357: No longer suppress fatal extraction errors by
default.

TarFile's errorlevel argument controls how errors are
handled that occur during extraction. There are three
possible levels 0, 1 and 2. If errorlevel is set to 1 or 2
fatal errors (e.g. a full filesystem) are raised as
exceptions. If it is set to 0, which is the default value,
extraction errors are suppressed, and error messages are
written to the debug log instead. But, if the debug log is
not activated, which is the default as well, all these
errors go unnoticed.

The original intention was to imitate GNU tar which tries
to extract as many members as possible instead of stopping
on the first error. It turns out that this is no good
default behaviour for a tar library. This patch simply
changes the default value for the errorlevel argument from
0 to 1, so that fatal extraction errors are raised as
EnvironmentError exceptions.
