PyFrame_FastToLocals() and PyFrame_LocalsToFast() had a return if
f_nlocals was 0. I think this was a holdover from the pre 2.1 days
when regular locals were the only kind of local variables.
The change makes it possible to use a free variable in eval or exec if
it the variable is also used elsewhere in the same block, which is
what the documentation says.
to reference fields via names instead of meaningless little integers.
This turned up one case where the wrong little integer was being used,
in informative progress output. Fixed that too.
SF bug #522264 reported by Evelyn Mitchell.
The code included a comment about "STAR STAR" which was translated
into the code as the bogus attribute token.STARSTAR. This name never
caused an attribute error because it was never retrieved. The code
was based on an old version of the grammar that specified kwargs as
two tokens ('*' '*'). I checked as far back as 2.1 and didn't find
this production.
The fix is simple, because token.DOUBLESTAR is the only token
allowed. Also update the grammar fragment in com_arglist().
XXX I'll bet lots of other grammar fragments in comments are out of
date, probably in this module and in compile.c.
+ Increased size of the window the user sees the first time.
+ Arranged for the display to remember its last size and position.
+ Added a Favorites (bookmarks) tab.
+ Added the "Advanced Search" decorations.
pymalloc, apparently. Fixed, but this means all bgen-generated modules will
have to be re-generated.
I hope (and expect) that the pymalloc fixes aren't bugfix candidates, because
if they are this is one too.
consistency checks, enabled only in a debug (Py_DEBUG) build. Note that
this never gets called automatically unless PYMALLOC_DEBUG is #define'd
too, and the envar PYTHONMALLOCSTATS exists.
Close a file before trying to unlink it, and apparently Cygwin needs
writes to an mmap'ed file to get flushed before they're visible.
Bugfix candidate, but I think only for the 2.2 line (it's testing
features that I think were new in 2.2).
Change type_get_doc (the get function for __doc__) to look in tp_dict
more often, and if it finds a descriptor in tp_dict, to call it (with
a NULL instance). This means you can add a __doc__ descriptor to a
new-style class that returns instance docs when called on an instance,
and class docs when called on a class -- or the same docs in either
case, but lazily computed.
I'll also check this into the 2.2 maintenance branch.

If a str or unicode method returns the original object,
make sure that for str and unicode subclasses the original
will not be returned.
This should prevent SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/460020
from reappearing.
Add a -r option; if given with a release number, the "What's New" document
is included with the relevant version number.
Update the text of the README distributed with the PostScript files to
reflect the changes in the user organizations in the Python community.

This closes SF bug #541257.

(install a python; uninstall it; install it again; reboot the machine;
abracadabra the uinstaller is gone).
Bugfix candidate, but I'll backport it myself.
