Clarified a couple of issues for the startElement*() handlers:
...
- the attrs value may be re-used by the parser, so the implementation
cannot rely on owning the object.
- an element with no namespace encountered in namespace mode will have a URI
of None, not "" (startElementNS() only).
Fixed a couple of minor markup issues as well.

CVS patch #477161 : New "access" keyword for mmap, from Jay T Miller.
...
This gives mmap() on Windows the ability to create read-only, write-
through and copy-on-write mmaps. A new keyword argument is introduced
because the mmap() signatures diverged between Windows and Unix, so
while they (now) both support this functionality, there wasn't a way to
spell it in a common way without introducing a new spelling gimmick.
The old spellings are still accepted, so there isn't a backward-
compatibility issue here.
