argument `-` which tells it to read files to compile from stdin. Each line
is read on demand and the named file is compiled immediately. (Original
patch by Piotr Ożarowski).
changed to use universal newlines.
Remove all imports from the compile() function; these are
now done at the top of the module ("Python normal form"),
and define a helper based on the platform instead of
testing the platform in the compile() function.
Highlights: import and friends will understand any of \r, \n and \r\n
as end of line. Python file input will do the same if you use mode 'U'.
Everything can be disabled by configuring with --without-universal-newlines.
See PEP278 for details.

Here is batch 2, as a big collection of CVS context diffs.
Along with moving comments into docstrings, i've added a
couple of missing docstrings and attempted to make sure more
module docstrings begin with a one-line summary.
I did not add docstrings to the methods in profile.py for
fear of upsetting any careful optimizations there, though
i did move class documentation into class docstrings.
The convention i'm using is to leave credits/version/copyright
type of stuff in # comments, and move the rest of the descriptive
stuff about module usage into module docstrings. Hope this is
okay.
there's a syntax error. (In particular, display the correct
filename). This changes the API: if there's a syntax error, the
function now returns normally after dumping the error to sys.stderr.
I changed Sjoerd's use of string.join(string.split(...)) with
string.replace().
urllib.py: '+' is not always safe (even though the RFC says so :-( )
whrandom.py: throw away top bits of time to avoid overflow on Mac
(where times can be negative)
