* PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize() and PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() decode a string
from the current locale encoding
* _Py_char2wchar() writes an "error code" in the size argument to indicate
if the function failed because of memory allocation failure or because of a
decoding error. The function doesn't write the error message directly to
stderr.
* Fix time.strftime() (if wcsftime() is missing): decode strftime() result
from the current locale encoding, not from the filesystem encoding.
A Unicode string can now be a PyASCIIObject, PyCompactUnicodeObject or
PyUnicodeObject. Aliasing a PyASCIIObject* or PyCompactUnicodeObject* to
PyUnicodeObject* is wrong
Use PyUnicode_IS_ASCII instead of PyUnicode_IS_COMPACT_ASCII, so the following
test can be removed:
PyUnicode_DATA(op) == (((PyCompactUnicodeObject *)(op))->utf8)
* Create copy_characters() function which doesn't check for the maximum
character in release mode
* _PyUnicode_CheckConsistency() is no more static to be able to use it
in _PyUnicode_FormatAdvanced() (in formatter_unicode.c)
* _PyUnicode_CheckConsistency() checks the string hash
ucs1, ucs2 and ucs4 libraries have to scan created substring to find the
maximum character, whereas it is not need to ASCII strings. Because ASCII
strings are common, it is useful to optimize ASCII.
* str[a:b] doesn't scan the string for the maximum character if the string
is ascii only
* PyUnicode_FromKindAndData() stops if we are sure that we cannot use a
shorter character type. For example, _PyUnicode_FromUCS1() stops if we
have at least one character in range U+0080-U+00FF
* Change its prototype: PyObject* instead of PyUnicodeoObject*.
* Remove an old assertion, the result of PyUnicode_READY (_PyUnicode_Ready)
must be checked instead

http://code.google.com/p/data-race-test/wiki/ThreadSanitizer is a dynamic data
race detector that runs on top of valgrind. With this patch, the binaries at
http://code.google.com/p/data-race-test/wiki/ThreadSanitizer#Binaries pass many
but not all of the Python tests. All of regrtest still passes outside of tsan.
I've implemented part of the C1x atomic types so that we can explicitly mark
variables that are used across threads, and get defined behavior as compilers
advance.
I've added tsan's client header and implementation to the codebase in
dynamic_annotations.{h,c} (docs at
http://code.google.com/p/data-race-test/wiki/DynamicAnnotations).
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get helgrind and drd to give sensible
error messages, even when I use their client annotations, so I'm not supporting
them.

Fix issue #1590864, multiple threads and fork() can cause deadlocks, by
acquiring the import lock around fork() calls. This prevents other threads
from having that lock while the fork happens, and is the recommended way of
dealing with such issues. There are two other locks we care about, the GIL
and the Thread Local Storage lock. The GIL is obviously held when calling
Python functions like os.fork(), and the TLS lock is explicitly reallocated
instead, while also deleting now-orphaned TLS data.
This only fixes calls to os.fork(), not extension modules or embedding
programs calling C's fork() directly. Solving that requires a new set of API
functions, and possibly a rewrite of the Python/thread_*.c mess. Add a
warning explaining the problem to the documentation in the mean time.
This also changes behaviour a little on AIX. Before, AIX (but only AIX) was
getting the import lock reallocated, seemingly to avoid this very same
problem. This is not the right approach, because the import lock is a
re-entrant one, and reallocating would do the wrong thing when forking while
holding the import lock.
Will backport to 2.6, minus the tiny AIX behaviour change.

programs calling C's fork() directly. Solving that requires a new set of API
functions, and possibly a rewrite of the Python/thread_*.c mess. Add a
warning explaining the problem to the documentation in the mean time.
This also changes behaviour a little on AIX. Before, AIX (but only AIX) was
getting the import lock reallocated, seemingly to avoid this very same
problem. This is not the right approach, because the import lock is a
re-entrant one, and reallocating would do the wrong thing when forking while
holding the import lock.
Will backport to 2.6, minus the tiny AIX behaviour change.
