1) #8271: when a byte sequence is invalid, only the start byte and all the
valid continuation bytes are now replaced by U+FFFD, instead of replacing
the number of bytes specified by the start byte.
See http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.2.0/ch03.pdf (pages 94-95);
2) 5- and 6-bytes-long UTF-8 sequences are now considered invalid (no changes
in behavior);
3) Add code and tests to reject surrogates (U+D800-U+DFFF) as defined in
RFC 3629, but leave it commented out since it's not backward compatible;
4) Change the error messages "unexpected code byte" to "invalid start byte"
and "invalid data" to "invalid continuation byte";
5) Add an extensive set of tests in test_unicode;
6) Fix test_codeccallbacks because it was failing after this change.
any errors that might occur during coercion of the left operand and
turning them into a TypeError with a message text that was confusing in
the given context. This patch lets any errors through, as was already
done during coercion of the right hand side.
For simple uses for str.format(), this makes the typing easier. Hopfully this
will help in the adoption of str.format().
For example:
'The {} is {}'.format('sky', 'blue')
You can mix and matcth auto-numbering and named replacement fields:
'The {} is {color}'.format('sky', color='blue')
But you can't mix and match auto-numbering and specified numbering:
'The {0} is {}'.format('sky', 'blue')
ValueError: cannot switch from manual field specification to automatic field numbering
Will port to 3.1.
the freelist contained half-initialized objects with freed pointers.

was copied from tupleobject.c, and appears in some other places.
I sign the petition.
Highlights:
- Adding PyObject_Format.
- Adding string.Format class.
- Adding __format__ for str, unicode, int, long, float, datetime.
- Adding builtin format.
- Adding ''.format and u''.format.
- str/unicode fixups for formatters.
The files in Objects/stringlib that implement PEP 3101 (stringdefs.h,
unicodedefs.h, formatter.h, string_format.h) are identical in trunk
and py3k. Any changes from here on should be made to trunk, and
changes will propogate to py3k).
a large width is passed on 32-bit platforms. Found by Google.
It would be good for people to review this especially carefully and verify
I don't have an off by one error and there is no other way to cause overflow.
so it is only executed once. Otherwise the same search function is
repeated added to the codec search path when regrtest is run with -R
and leaks are reported.
conversion using the proper magic slot (e.g., __int__()). Also move conversion
code out of PyNumber_*() functions in the C API into the nb_* function.
Applied patch #1109424. Thanks Walter Doewald.
unicodedata.east_asian_width(). You can still implement your own
simple width() function using it like this:
def width(u):
w = 0
for c in unicodedata.normalize('NFC', u):
cwidth = unicodedata.east_asian_width(c)
if cwidth in ('W', 'F'): w += 2
else: w += 1
return w
