Issue #11224: Improved sparse file read support (r85916) introduced a
regression in _FileInFile which is used in file-like objects returned
by TarFile.extractfile(). The inefficient design of the
_FileInFile.read() method causes various dramatic side-effects and
errors:
- The data segment of a file member is read completely into memory
every(!) time a small block is accessed. This is not only slow
but may cause unexpected MemoryErrors with very large files.
- Reading members from compressed tar archives is even slower
because of the excessive backwards seeking which is done when the
same data segment is read over and over again.
- As a backwards seek on a TarFile opened in stream mode is not
possible, using extractfile() fails with a StreamError.

Issue #11074: Make 'tokenize' so it can be reloaded.
The module stored away the 'open' object as found in the global namespace
(which fell through to the built-in namespace) since it defined its own 'open'.
Problem is that if you reloaded the module it then grabbed the 'open' defined
in the previous load, leading to code that infinite recursed. Switched to
simply call builtins.open directly.

Issue #11268: Prevent Mac OS X Installer failure if Documentation
package had previously been installed.
........
Although this patch contains API changes and is rather weighty for an
RC phase, the mailbox module was essentially unusable without the patch
since it would produce UnicodeErrors when handling non-ascii input
at arbitrary and somewhat mysterious places, and any non-trivial amount
of email processing will encounter messages with non-ascii bytes.
The release manager approved the patch application.
The changes allow binary input, and reject non-ASCII string input early
with a useful message instead of failing mysteriously later. Binary
is used internally for reading and writing the mailbox files. StringIO
and Text file input are deprecated.
Initial patch by Victor Stinner, validated and expanded by R. David Murray.
Initial patch by Kelsey Hightower. Approved by Raymond. A test was
non-trivial to write without calling the private function directly, so
we moved that for later.
the system-provided Python. Also, properly guard a new Python 3 only
installer build step so that build-installer.py can stay compatible
with the 2.7 version. (with release manager approval for 3.2rc2)
keyword-only argument. The preceding positional argument was deprecated,
so it made no sense to add filter as a positional argument.
(Patch reviewed by Brian Curtin and Anthony Long.)
(Reviewed by Georg Brandl.)
Also made similar changes to deque.reverse() though this wasn't
strictly necessary (the edge case cannot occur with two pointers
moving to meet in the middle). Making the change in reverse()
was more a matter of future-proofing.
