Fix issue #1590864, multiple threads and fork() can cause deadlocks, by
acquiring the import lock around fork() calls. This prevents other threads
from having that lock while the fork happens, and is the recommended way of
dealing with such issues. There are two other locks we care about, the GIL
and the Thread Local Storage lock. The GIL is obviously held when calling
Python functions like os.fork(), and the TLS lock is explicitly reallocated
instead, while also deleting now-orphaned TLS data.
This only fixes calls to os.fork(), not extension modules or embedding
programs calling C's fork() directly. Solving that requires a new set of API
functions, and possibly a rewrite of the Python/thread_*.c mess. Add a
warning explaining the problem to the documentation in the mean time.
This also changes behaviour a little on AIX. Before, AIX (but only AIX) was
getting the import lock reallocated, seemingly to avoid this very same
problem. This is not the right approach, because the import lock is a
re-entrant one, and reallocating would do the wrong thing when forking while
holding the import lock.
Will backport to 2.6, minus the tiny AIX behaviour change.

When range checking was added to time.strftime() a check was placed on tm_isdst
to make sure it fell within [-1, 1] just in case someone implementing
strftime() in libc was stupid enough to assume this. Turns out, though, some
OSs (e.g. zOS) are stupid enough to use values outside of this range for time
structs created by the system itself. So instead of throwing a ValueError,
tm_isdst is now normalized before being passed to strftime().
Fixes issue #6823. Thanks Robert Shapiro for diagnosing the problem and
contributing an initial patch.

Issue 5954, PyFrame_GetLineNumber:
Most uses of PyCode_Addr2Line

Forcing people to go through the code object makes them know more about the

The remaining uses of PyCode_Addr2Line seem to be getting the line from a
traceback (for example,
http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en#u_9_nDrchrw/pygame-1.7.1release/src/base.c&q=PyCode_Addr2Line),

Issue #6042:
lnotab-based tracing is very complicated and isn't documented very well. There
were at least 3 comment blocks purporting to document co_lnotab, and none did a
very good job. This patch unifies them into Objects/lnotab_notes.txt which
tries to completely capture the current state of affairs.
I also discovered that we've attached 2 layers of patches to the basic tracing
scheme. The first layer avoids jumping to instructions that don't start a line,
to avoid problems in if statements and while loops. The second layer
discovered that jumps backward do need to trace at instructions that don't
start a line, so it added extra lnotab entries for 'while' and 'for' loops, and
added a special case for backward jumps within the same line. I replaced these
patches by just treating forward and backward jumps differently.

This doesn't introduce an backwards-incompatiblity as the code in PyLoader
already required the single method ResourceLoader defined as an abstract
method.
when a loader is given missing or bad code object bytecode. Unfortunately an
exception related to source paths was masking what the proper exception to test

The code being test was not affected.

#6416: Fix compilation of the select module on Windows, as well as test_subprocess:
PIPE_BUF is not defined on Windows, and probably has no meaning there.
Anyway the subprocess module uses another way to perform non-blocking reads (with a thread)

Temporarily ignore rmtree errors in test_getcwd_long_pathnames to see
if the test gives useful failure info on Solaris buildbot.

Try to fix Solaris buildbot rmtree failure in test_getcwd_long_pathnames
cleanup. If this fix works, it means that Solaris is unique among
our platforms in what happens when shutil.rmtree is called on the
current working directory (ie: it doesn't work on Solaris, but
it does everywhere else).

Sets the compiler attribute to keep the old behavior for third-party packages.
........
added the shutdown_request() which can perform shutdown before calling close. This is needed for the ForkingMixIn because different close semantics are required for child and parent process. shutdown_request(), for TCP servers, calls socket.shutdown() and then calls close_request(). Therefore, this is not an backwards incompatible change, since subclasses that continue to override close_request() continue to work.

Use select.poll() in subprocess, when available, rather than select() so that
it does not fail when file descriptors are large. Fixes issue3392.
Patch largely contributed by Frank Chu (fpmc) with some improvements by me.
See http://bugs.python.org/issue3392.
