private memory allocation scheme in dtoa.c, along with a piece of code
that caches powers of 5 for future use. This makes it easier to
detect dtoa.c memory leaks with Valgrind or similar tools.

- Issue #7714: Use ``gcc -dumpversion`` to detect the version of GCC on
MacOSX.
- Make configure look for util.h as well as libutil.h. The former
is the header file that on OSX contains the defition of openpty.
(Needed to compile for OSX 10.4 on OSX 10.6)
- Use the correct definition of CC to compile the pythonw executable
could crash in many places because of the PyByteArray_AS_STRING() macro
returning NULL. The macro now returns a statically allocated empty
string instead.
Also remove some now unused variables, and add comments clarifying the
possible outputs of the parsing section of _Py_dg_strtod. Thanks
Eric Smith for reviewing.

Py3K warnings are DeprecationWarning by default this was causing -3 to
essentially be a no-op. Now DeprecationWarning is only silenced if -3 is not
used.
Closes issue #7700. Thanks Ezio Melotti and Florent Xicluna for patch help.
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.
renaming of `cPickle` to `pickle`. The warning was annoying since there's
no alternative to cPickle if you care about performance. Patch by Florent
Xicluna.
to integer PyArg_Parse* format codes into a TypeError. Add a
DeprecationWarning for floats passed with the 'L' format code, which
didn't previously have a warning.
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.
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.

any errors that might occur during coercion of the left operand and
turning them into a TypeError with a message text that was confusing in
the given context. This patch lets any errors through, as was already
done during coercion of the right hand side.
This is for consistency with imitation file objects like StringIO and BytesIO.
This commit also adds a few tests, where they were lacking for concerned
methods.
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.
missing proper end-of-line termination. Patch and tests by
Scott Dial. The new tests include a test harness which will
make it easier to add additional tests.
`storbinary()` method of FTP and FTP_TLS objects gains an optional `rest`
argument. Patch by Pablo Mouzo.
(note: the patch also adds a test for the rest argument in retrbinary())
(Note that an empty archive is not the same as an empty file. An
empty archive contains no members and is correctly terminated with an
EOF block full of zeros. An empty file contains no data at all.)
The problem was that although tarfile was able to create empty
archives, it failed to open them raising a ReadError. On the other
hand, tarfile opened empty files without error in most read modes and
presented them as empty archives. (However, some modes still raised
errors: "r|gz" raised ReadError, but "r:gz" worked, "r:bz2" even
raised EOFError.)
In order to get a more fine-grained control over the various internal
error conditions I now split up the HeaderError exception into a
number of meaningful sub-exceptions. This makes it easier in the
TarFile.next() method to react to the different conditions in the
correct way.
The visible change in its behaviour now is that tarfile will open
empty archives correctly and raise ReadError consistently for empty
files.
On MacOSX 10.6 the CoreFoundation framework must be initialized on the main
thread, the constructor function in that framework will cause an SIGABRT when
it is called on any other thread.
Because a number of extension link (indirectly) to CoreFoundation and the
Python core itself didn't the interpreter crashed when importing some
extensions, such as _locale, on a secondary thread.
This fix ensures that Python is linked to CoreFoundation on OSX, which results
in the CoreFoundation constructor being called when Python is loaded. This
does not require code changes.
string <-> float conversions; this makes sure that the result of the round

local connections.

leak-chasing test runs give sensible results. The previous method of
reaping threads could return successfully while some Thread objects were
still referenced. This also introduces a new private function:
:func:hread._count().
