When daylight time ends, an hour repeats on the local clock (for example,
in US Eastern, the clock jumps from 1:59 back to 1:00 again). Times in
the repeated hour are ambiguous. A tzinfo subclass that wants to play
with astimezone() needs to treat times in the repeated hour as being
standard time. astimezone() previously required that such times be
treated as daylight time. There seems no killer argument either way,
but Guido wants the standard-time version, and it does seem easier the
new way to code both American (local-time based) and European (UTC-based)
switch rules, and the astimezone() implementation is simpler.
was broken because new-in-2.3 code added a tp_as_mapping slot to tuples.
Repaired that.
Added basic docs to check_recursion().
The code that intended to exempt tuples and strings was also broken here,
and in 2.2: these should use PyXYZ_CheckExact(), not PyXYZ_Check() -- we
can't know whether subclass instances are immutable. This part (and this
part alone) is a bugfix candidate.
port the tests to PyUnit and add many tests for error
cases. This increases code coverage in Python/bltinmodule.c
from 75% to 92%. (From SF patch #662807, with
assert_(not fcmp(x, y)) replaced with assertAlmostEqual(x, y)
where possible)
Make the code slightly shorter, faster, and easier to
read.
* Eliminate unused DUP_TOPX code for x==1.
compile.c always generates DUP_TOP instead.
* Since only two cases remain for DUP_TOPX, replace
the switch-case with if-elseif.
* The in-lined integer compare does a CheckExact on
both arguments. Since the second is a little more
likely to fail, test it first.
* The switch-case for IS/IS_NOT and IN/NOT_IN can
separate the regular and inverted cases with no
additional work. For all four paths, saves a test and
jump.
The Py2.3 updates to the pyclbr module return both Class and Function
objects. The IDLE ClassBrowser module only knew about Class and could
not handle objects which did not define "super".
Fixed by adding a guard.

Patch from Brett Cannon:
First, the 'y' directive now handles [00, 68] as a suffix for the
21st century while [69, 99] is treated as the suffix for the 20th
century (this is for Open Group compatibility).
strptime now returns default values that make it a valid date ...
the ability to pass in a regex object to use instead of a format
string (and the inverse ability to have strptime return a regex object)
has been removed. This is in preparation for a future patch that will
add some caching internally to get a speed boost.
the AEDesc data shouldn't be disposed when the Python object is.
Added a C call AEDesc_NewBorrowed() to create these objects and a Python
method old=AEDesc.AutoDispose(onoff) to change auto-dispose state.
are going to replace StandardGetFile() and friends. Main differences are
that these allow you to ask for specific datatypes to be returned (FSSpec,
FSRef, string, unicode or subtypes thereof) and that they provide access
to underlying features of Navigation Services through keyword arguments.
underlying DB has already been closed (and thus all of its cursors).
This fixes a potential segfault.

bugfix: close the DB object when raising an exception due to an error
during DB.open. This prevents an exception when closing the
environment about not all databases being closed.
