Gregory P. Smith dd96db63f6 This reverts r63675 based on the discussion in this thread: 
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-June/079988.html

Python 2.6 should stick with PyString_* in its codebase.  The PyBytes_* names
in the spirit of 3.0 are available via a #define only.  See the email thread.

Ronald Oussoren 5640ce2f1e MacOS X: Enable 4-way universal builds 
This patch adds a new configure argument on OSX:
        --with-universal-archs=[32-bit|64-bit|all]

When used with the --enable-universalsdk option this controls which
CPU architectures are includes in the framework. The default is 32-bit,
meaning i386 and ppc. The most useful alternative is 'all', which includes
all 4 CPU architectures supported by MacOS X (i386, ppc, x86_64 and ppc64).

This includes limited support for the Carbon bindings in 64-bit mode as well,
limited because (a) I haven't done extensive testing and (b) a large portion
of the Carbon API's aren't available in 64-bit mode anyway.

I've also duplicated a feature of Apple's build of python: setting the
environment variable 'ARCHFLAGS' controls the '-arch' flags used for building
extensions using distutils.

Allow multiple repositories in .pypirc; see http://wiki.python.org/moin/EnhancedPyPI

The patch is slightly revised from Tarek's last patch: I've simplified
the PyPIRCCommand.finalize_options() method to not look at sys.argv.
Tests still pass.

  the prompt rather than always sys.stderr.

Christian Heimes 6f34109384 I finally got the time to update and merge Mark's and my trunk-math branch. The patch is collaborated work of Mark Dickinson and me. It was mostly done a few months ago. The patch fixes a lot of loose ends and edge cases related to operations with NaN, INF, very small values and complex math. 
The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)

Brett Cannon e974689038 Re-implement the 'warnings' module in C. This allows for usage of the 
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.

Closes issue #1631171.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 7adc776ea6 Issue 2408: remove the _types module 
It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
when they can easily be obtained with python code.
These expressions even work with Jython.

I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
at least this change makes it simpler.

documentation and test suite cleanup done by me (gregory.p.smith).

Fixes issue 815646 and 595601 (as well as many other bugs and

Gregory P. Smith a5cfcad0e3 Prevent ioctl op codes from being sign extended from int to unsigned long 
when used on platforms that actually define ioctl as taking an unsigned long.
(the BSDs and OS X / Darwin)

Adds a unittest for fcntl.ioctl that tests what happens with both positive and
negative numbers.

This was done because of issue1471 but I'm not able to reproduce -that- problem
in the first place on Linux 32bit or 64bit or OS X 10.4 & 10.5 32bit or 64 bit.

regardless of the native sizeof(long) used in the integer object.

This somewhat odd behavior of returning a signed is maintained in 2.x for
compatibility reasons of always returning an integer rather than a long object.

The patch also renames sys._cleartypecache to sys._clear_type_cache
