select.select(): Add note that though this function accepts empty lists,

using *only* empty lists may not be acceptable on all

Use small tables instead of bare \item markers to describe the contents

of return tuples. The bare \item took advantage of an implementation
detail when formatting in LaTeX, and was just wrong when generating HTML.
It also broke the XML conversion scripts, since there was no enclosing
list-like environment to contain them.

Substantially revise to handle the fact that Python CVS is no longer in a

file-system accessible repository. Add a little bit of smarts to convert
the cvsroot to an anonymous cvsroot the real one requires an authenticated

checkout or export to get a fresh copy of the tree.
