- New function sys.exc_clear() clears the current exception. This is
...
rarely needed, but can sometimes be useful to release objects
referenced by the traceback held in sys.exc_info()[2]. (SF patch
#693195.) Thanks to Kevin Jacobs!

Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no
...
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group. These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.
