The interning of short strings violates the refcnt==1 assumption for
_PyString_Resize().
A simple fix is to boost the initial value of "totalnew" by 1.
Combined with an NULL argument to PyString_FromStringAndSize(),
this assures that resulting format string is not interned.
This will remain true even if the implementation of
PyString_FromStringAndSize() changes because only the uninitialized
strings that can be interned are those of zero length.
Added a test case.
* Updated comment on design of imap()
* Added untraversed object in izip() structure
* Replaced the pairwise() example with a more general window() example
code use proper functions to get paths.
Changed the name of tar file that is searched for to be absolute (i.e., not use
os.extsep) since filename is locked in based on name of file in CVS
(testtar.tar).
Closes bug #731403 .
to test the new setparameters() interface.
Modified play_sound_file() to print the elapsed time taken to play the
test sample (to the nearest 0.1 sec).
Python-Dev. Fixed typos in test comments. Added some trivial new test
guts to show the parallelism (now) among __delitem__, __setitem__ and
__getitem__ wrt error conditions.
Still a bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 final, but waiting for Fred to get a
chance to chime in.
Someone review this, please! Final releases are getting close, Fred
(the weakref guy) won't be around until Tuesday, and the pre-patch
code can indeed raise spurious RuntimeErrors in the presence of
threads or mutating comparison functions.
See the bug report for my confusions: I can't see any reason for why
__delitem__ iterated over the keys. The new one-liner implementation
is much faster, can't raise RuntimeError, and should be better-behaved
in all respects wrt threads.
New tests test_weak_keyed_bad_delitem and
test_weak_keyed_cascading_deletes fail before this patch.
Bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 too, if someone else agrees with this patch.
float_pow(): Don't let the platform pow() raise -1.0 to an integer power
anymore; at least glibc gets it wrong in some cases. Note that
math.pow() will continue to deliver wrong (but platform-native) results
in such cases.
patterns as floats/doubles results in floating point exceptions.
Fix this by implementing a separate test_byteswap() for the floating
point tests. This new test compares the tostring() values of both arrays
instead of the arrays themselves.

The compiler was reseting the list comprehension tmpname counter for each function, but the symtable was using the same counter for the entire module. Repair by move tmpname into the symtable entry.
Bugfix candidate.
