way of copying the source to the destination provided the destination
doesn't already exist.

the curses_panel extension can't find the curses extension/DLL, which
exports some curses symbols to it.
comments about why both calls to cyclic gc here can cause problems.
I'll backport to 2.3 maint. Since the calls were introduced in 2.3,
that will be the end of it.
isn't checked, and it *is* possible that a very large alloca() call is
made, e.g. when a large registry value is being read. I don't know if
alloca() in that case returns NULL or returns a pointer pointing outside
the stack, and I don't want to know -- I've simply replaced all calls to
alloca() with either PyMem_Malloc() or PyString_FromStringAndSize(NULL,)
as appropriate, followed by a size check. This addresses SF buf 851056.
Will backport to 2.3 next.
and left shifts. (Thanks to Kalle Svensson for SF patch 849227.)
This addresses most of the remaining semantic changes promised by
PEP 237, except for repr() of a long, which still shows the trailing
'L'. The PEP appears to promise warnings for operations that
changed semantics compared to Python 2.3, but this is not
implemented; we've suffered through enough warnings related to
hex/oct literals and I think it's best to be silent now.

* Add a better test for deepcopying.
* Add tests to show the __init__() function works like it does for list
and tuple. Add related test.
* Have shallow copies of frozensets return self. Add related test.
* Have frozenset(f) return f if f is already a frozenset. Add related test.
* Beefed-up some existing tests.
by the function object or by the method object, the function
object's attribute usually wins. Christian Tismer pointed out that
that this is really a mistake, because this only happens for special
methods (like __reduce__) where the method object's version is
really more appropriate than the function's attribute. So from now
on, all method attributes will have precedence over function
attributes with the same name.
