has an extra (optional) output parameter through which it returns the size.
Use this in a few places where I used PyUnicode_AsString() + strlen(),
and in one new place (which fixes test_pep263).
From now on, trying to write str to a binary stream
is an error (I'm still working on the reverse).
There are still (at least) two failing tests:
- test_asynchat
- test_urllib2_localnet
but I'm sure these will be fixed by someone.

Here's a patch which addresses this. It also fixes the indentation in
PySSL_SetError, bringing it into line with PEP 7, fixes a compile warning
about one of the OpenSSL macros, and makes the namespace a bit more
consistent. I've tested it on FC 7 and OS X 10.4.

Improve extended slicing support in builtin types and classes. Specifically:
- Specialcase extended slices that amount to a shallow copy the same way as
is done for simple slices, in the tuple, string and unicode case.
- Specialcase step-1 extended slices to optimize the common case for all
involved types.
- For lists, allow extended slice assignment of differing lengths as long
as the step is 1. (Previously, 'l[:2:1] = []' failed even though
'l[:2] = []' and 'l[:2:None] = []' do not.)
- Implement extended slicing for buffer, array, structseq, mmap and
UserString.UserString.
- Implement slice-object support (but not non-step-1 slice assignment) for
UserString.MutableString.
- Add tests for all new functionality.

Known issues:
The string.Formatter class, as discussed in the PEP, is incomplete.
Error handling needs to conform to the PEP.
Need to fix this warning that I introduced in Python/formatter_unicode.c:
Objects/stringlib/unicodedefs.h:26: warning: `STRINGLIB_CMP' defined but not used
Need to make sure sign formatting is correct, more tests needed.
Need to remove '()' sign formatting, left over from an earlier version of the PEP.
ut-32-be). On narrow builds the codecs combine surrogate pairs in the unicode
object into one codepoint on encoding and create surrogate pairs for
codepoints outside the BMP on decoding. Lone surrogates are passed through
unchanged in all cases.
Backport to the trunk will follow.

Backout the original 'fix' to 1721309 which had no effect.
Different versions of Berkeley DB handle this differently.
The comments and bug report should have the details. Memory is allocated

4.5 has the free error, but not earlier versions.
Mostly update comments, plus make the free conditional.
This fix was already applied to the 2.5 branch.

to disable it and only import msvccompiler on Windows since that's

I'm guessing this module broke when Neal ripped out the types module --
it used 'list' both as a local variable and as the built-in list type.
Renamed the local variable since that was easier.

Fix a compilation warning.
................
This affects the parser, various object implementations,
and all places that put identifiers into C string literals.
In testing, a number of crashes occurred as code would
fail when the recursion limit was reached (such as the
Unicode interning dictionary having key/value pairs where
key is not value). To solve these, I added an overflowed
flag, which allows for 50 more recursions after the
limit was reached and the exception was raised, and
a recursion_critical flag, which indicates that recursion
absolutely must be allowed, i.e. that a certain call
must not cause a stack overflow exception.
There are still some places where both str and str8 are
accepted as identifiers; these should eventually be
removed.
the result of a call to PyObject_Repr() into the string. This makes
it possible to simplify many repr implementations.
PyUnicode_FromFormat() uses two steps to create the final string: A first
pass through the format string determines the size of the final string and
a second pass creates the string. To avoid calling PyObject_Repr() twice
for each %R specifier, PyObject_Repr() is called during the size
calculation step and the results are stored in an array (whose size is
determined at the start by counting %R specifiers).
PyString_Concat() and PyString_ConcatAndDel() (the name PyUnicode_Concat()
was already taken).
Change PyObject_Repr() to always return a unicode object.
Update all repr implementations to return unicode objects.
Add a function PyObject_ReprStr8() that calls PyObject_Repr() and converts
the result to an 8bit string.
Use PyObject_ReprStr8() where using PyObject_Repr() can't be done
straightforward.
