Jeffrey Yasskin 655d835415 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.

Jeffrey Yasskin f7f858d141 Issue 5954, PyFrame_GetLineNumber:
Most uses of PyCode_Addr2Line
(http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=PyCode_Addr2Line) are just trying to get
the line number of a specified frame, but there's no way to do that directly.
Forcing people to go through the code object makes them know more about the
guts of the interpreter than they should need.

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),
which is replaced by the tb_lineno field.  So we may be able to deprecate
PyCode_Addr2Line entirely for external use.

Jeffrey Yasskin 1aa4700234 PyCode_NewEmpty:
Most uses of PyCode_New found by http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=PyCode_New
are trying to build an empty code object, usually to put it in a dummy frame
object. This patch adds a PyCode_NewEmpty wrapper which lets the user specify
just the filename, function name, and first line number, instead of also
requiring lots of code internals.

R. David Murray 636b23a96f Various small fixups to the multiprocessing docs, mostly fixing and
enabling doctests that Sphinx can run, and fixing and disabling tests that
Sphinx can't run.  I hand checked every test not now marked as a doctest,
and all except the two that have open bug reports against them now work,
at least on Linux/trunk. (I did not look at the last example at all since
there was already an open bug).  I did not read the whole document with
an editor's eye, but I did fix a few things I noticed while working on
the tests.

R. David Murray ec047e0725 Make sys.xxx variable references into links, note that print_last only
works when an exception gets to the interactive prompt, and update the
examples after testing.  The last one is now a valid Sphinx doctest,
but of the preceding two one can't be made a doctest and the other one
I'm postponing to 3.x because sphinx handles doctests as Unicode strings
and that makes the 2.x output confusing.

Michael Foord 345b2fe21e Better exception messages for unittest assert methods.
- unittest.assertNotEqual() now uses the inequality operator (!=) instead
  of the equality operator.

- Default assertTrue and assertFalse messages are now useful.

- TestCase has a longMessage attribute. This defaults to False, but if set to True
  useful error messages are shown in addition to explicit messages passed to assert methods.

by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.

Jeffrey Yasskin 68d6852006 Backport r69961 to trunk, replacing JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} with
POP_JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} and JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE}_OR_POP. This avoids executing
a POP_TOP on each conditional and sometimes allows the peephole optimizer to
skip a JUMP_ABSOLUTE entirely. It speeds up list comprehensions significantly.
