happen in 2.3, but nobody noticed it still was getting generated (the
warning was disabled by default). OverflowWarning and
PyExc_OverflowWarning should be removed for 2.5, and left notes all over
saying so.
* It ran fine under "python regrtest.py test_warnings" but failed under
"python regrtest.py" presumably because other tests would add to
filtered warnings and not reset them at the end of the test.
* Converted to a unittest format for better control. Renamed
monkey() and unmonkey() to setUp() and tearDown().
* Increased coverage by testing all warnings in __builtin__.
* Increased coverage by testing regex matching of specific messages.
reported consistently with the *nix world. 'Lib/test/test_warnings.py'
came out as 'lib\test\test_warnings.py'. The basename is all we care
about so I used that.
Add API function simplefilter() that does not create or install
regular expressions to match message or module. Extend the filters
data structure to store None as an alternative to re.compile("").
Move the _test() function to test_warnings and add some code to try
and avoid disturbing the global state of the warnings module.
