of using the CCompiler.find_library_file() provided by the Distutils.
This patch fixes it to use the Distutils method at the cost of some
additional glue.
(The duplication resulted in the SSL module not being automatically
built on Macs; the Distutils knew that shared libraries on OS X have a
.dylib extension, but the setup.py code didn't.)
Constructor accepts optional keyword arguments after a optional items list.
Add fromkeys() as an alternate constructor from an iterable over keys.
Expand related unittests.
[ 635933 ] make some type attrs writable
Plus a couple of extra tests beyond what's up there.
It hasn't been as carefully reviewed as it perhaps should, so all readers
are encouraged, nay exhorted, to give this a close reading.
There are still a couple of oddities related to assigning to __name__,
but I intend to solicit python-dev's opinions on these.
Mark writes in private email:
"Modules listed in the registry was a dumb idea. This whole scheme
can die. AFAIK, no one in the world uses it (including win32all
since the last build)."

messages about MRO conflicts. (The tweaks include correcting spelling
errors, some refactoring to get the name of classic classes, and a
style nit or two.)
per PEP 291 (although there are currently string methods used).
This patch makes it compatible with 2.2, at least, by detecting
universal newline support.
[#495695] webbrowser.py: selection of browser
* Lib/webbrowser.py
Only include graphic browsers in _tryorder if DISPLAY is set. Also,
included skipstone support, as suggested by Fred in the mentioned bug.
* Misc/NEWS
Mention fix and skipstone inclusion.
get PEP-252 style objects in stead of old-fashioned objects.
In stead of defining a GetattrHook you declare a class variable getsetlist,
which contains tuples (name, getcode, setcode, docstring).
Only lightly tested: the code still works if you don't inherit PEP252Mixin
and the code works if you inherit it but don't define any getters
or setters. Also, this will not work together with the "poor mans inheritance"
offered by method chains, so the CF module will remain with old-style
objects until PEP253 is supported too.
whether they crash or not is not a matter of using a framework or not,
but whether the code is run from an app bundle or not. And that it
_can_ crash (instead of tracing back) is Apple's bug anyway, not ours.
guarantee abs(x%y) < abs(y) in all cases when a float is involved.
math.fmod() should, though, so noted that too.
Bugfix candidate. Someone should check the LaTeX here first, though.
