open() and io.TextIOWrapper are now calling locale.getpreferredencoding(False)
instead of locale.getpreferredencoding() in text mode if the encoding is not
specified. Don't change temporary the locale encoding using locale.setlocale(),
use the current locale encoding instead of the user preferred encoding.
Explain also in open() documentation that locale.getpreferredencoding(False) is
called if the encoding is not specified.
It is now possible to use a custom type for the __builtins__ namespace, instead
of a dict. It can be used for sandboxing for example. Raise also a NameError
instead of ImportError if __build_class__ name if not found in __builtins__.
if the format string is not empty. Manually merge r79596 and r84772
from 2.x.
Also, apparently test_format() from test_builtin never made it into
3.x. I've added it as well. It tests the basic format()
infrastructure.
a single `\UXXXXXXXX`, regardless of whether the character is printable
or not. Also, the "backslashreplace" error handler now joins surrogate
pairs into a single character on UCS-2 builds.

Issue #7251: Break out round tests for large values into a separate
test function, and skip that test on Linux/alpha systems with a broken
system round function.
This should turn the Debian/alpha buildbot green.

#3479: unichr(2**32) used to return u'\x00'.
The argument was fetched in a long, but PyUnicode_FromOrdinal takes an int.
(why doesn't gcc issue a truncation warning in this case?)

Correct a crash when two successive unicode allocations fail with a MemoryError:
the freelist contained half-initialized objects with freed pointers.
The comment
/* XXX UNREF/NEWREF interface should be more symmetrical */
was copied from tupleobject.c, and appears in some other places.
I sign the petition.

The repr() of a string now contains printable Unicode characters unescaped.
The new ascii() builtin can be used to get a repr() with only ASCII characters in it.
PEP and patch were written by Atsuo Ishimoto.
