Barry Warsaw a0f3c5c8d5 Document --with-thread as deprecated. This gets rid of the annoying
newline in configure --help.

Barry Warsaw ef82cd7234 Enable the garbage collection module by default. --without-cycle-gc
disables it.  The gc test is moved to just after the thread test, as
is the wctype-functions test.

Modules/Setup.config is generated instead of Modules/Setup.thread.

Applied SF patch #100684 (loewis) to fix help alignment bug.

Jeremy Hylton 2a2c218525 penultimate phase of Neil Schemenauer's GC patches
update configure files (turn --with-cycle-gc on for beta release?)

Guido van Rossum b9a22a1a36 Bump version to 2.0.
Note that configure hadn't been checked in a few times so it has more
changes, catching up with the last few changes to congifure.in as
well.

Barry Warsaw c0d24d8bbf Thread support is turned on my default now. To disable building
threads use --without-threads.  No extra tests of thread/compiler
combinations have been added.

--with(out)-thread and --with(out)-threads are completely
interchangeable.

--with-threads still supports the =DIRECTORY option for specifying
where to find thread libraries.

Fred Drake 8cef4cf737 Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net>:
This patch adds the openpty() and forkpty() library calls to posixmodule.c,
when they are available on the target
system. (glibc-2.1-based Linux systems, FreeBSD and BSDI at least, probably
the other BSD-based systems as well.)

Lib/pty.py is also rewritten to use openpty when available, but falls
back to the old SGI method or the "manual" BSD open-a-pty
code. Openpty() is necessary to use the Unix98 ptys under Linux 2.2,
or when using non-standard tty names under (at least) BSDI, which is
why I needed it, myself ;-) forkpty() is included for symmetry.

Andrew M. Kuchling 22c6934885 Regenerated autoconf files. There's an extra change to config.h.in beyond
the mremap() change I made; did someone modify configure.in previously
without recreating these files?

Greg Ward 57c9a663cb When building on Solaris and the compiler is GCC, use '$(CC) -G' to
create shared extensions rather than 'ld -G'.  This ensures that shared
extensions link against libgcc.a, in case there are any functions in the
GCC runtime not already in the Python core.

Guido van Rossum 02a1c40051 Pat Knight:
Solaris 2 has stub implementations of the POSIX thread functions such as
pthread_detach in libc. This means that configure tries to use them without
-lpthread, then the test of pthread_create fails and the configuration
falls back to the Solaris thread library. This patch moves the test for
pthread_create in -lpthread ahead of the test for pthread_detach in libc.
The patch also ensures that -lpthread is at the start of the library list
when linking, to pick up POSIX thread semantics for fork (see below).

Justification.
Use of POSIX threads on Solaris ensures that the fork() call only runs the
thread that called fork() in the child. This is desirable to prevent (for
example) parent server or database threads running in the child. Sun's
-lthread library uses a traditional fork() which replicates all the
parent's threads in the child. I find this undesirable.

Digression.
The configure.in seems to always test for -lthread even if a POSIX library
is found. I'm not enough of a configure.in wizard to decide whether this is
desirable or how to fix it. It is also irrelevant to this patch - I just
spotted it while testing.
End of Digression.

Guido van Rossum ff484183de According to Harri Pasanen, the Solaris+gcc test for LINKFORSHARED
needed an adaptation for the latest gcc -- we need to grep stderr as
well as stdout for the magic string BFD.  (Does anybody know what BFD
means?)

Fred Drake f581db15a3 Remove test for getlogin_r(); the interface is not clearly defined, at
least on Solaris (sometimes it's Unix98, sometimes it conforms to an
early draft).

Properly generate config.h.in using autoheader instead of editing it
manually; thanks, Guido!

Guido van Rossum 0eefa3fbbf Patch by Vladimir Marangozov, inspired by a bug report from Gary
Duzan, for AIX, to support C++ objects with static initializers, when
using the genuine IBM C++ compiler (namely xlC/xlC_r).

Guido van Rossum df69365f5f Ty Sarna writes:
The following patches (relative to 1.5.2b1) enable Python dynamic
loading to work on NetBSD platforms that use ELF (presnetly mips and
alpha systems).  They automaticly determine wether the system is ELF or
a.out rather than using astatic list of platforms so that when other
NetBSD platforms move to ELF, python will continue to work without
change.
