Add code to read from master_fd in the parent, breaking when we get an OSError
(EIO can occur on Linux) or there's no more data to read. Without this,
test_pty.py can hang on the waitpid() because the child is blocking on the
stdout write. This will definitely happen on Mac OS X and could potentially
happen on other platforms. See the comment for details.
the master should close the slave fd.
Added a test to test_pty.py that reads from the master_fd after doing
a pty.fork(); without the fix it hangs forever instead of raising an
exception. (<crossing fingers for the buildbots>)
2.5 backport candidate.
The new char-array used in ioctl calls wasn't explicitly NUL-terminated;
quite probably the cause for the test_pty failures on Solaris that we
circumvented earlier. (I wasn't able to reproduce it with this patch, but it
has been somewhat elusive to start with.)
converted to CR CR NL. There may be a way to fix this with tcsetattr,
but I couldn't find it. There was a similar problem on IRIX.
Just normalize the output and compare that.
Will backport.
tty opened by os.openpty() isn't always a tty according to os.isatty(), when
it's tested inside the process that opened it. Doesn't affect actual
functionality, as using a tty this way is rarely, if ever, useful. Ignoring
the failure allows the test for actual functionality to continue.
Will backport to 2.4-maint.
imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".
This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
Lib/email/test/data).
Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)
and replaces them with a new API verify(). As a result the regression
suite will also perform its tests in optimization mode.

apparently not considered a terminal, and so isatty(3) returns false. So we
skip the test for ttyness of the master side and just check the slave side,
which should really be a terminal.
comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").
There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)
