Improve DictMixin.
...
Replaced docstring with comments. Prevents subclass contamination.
Added the missing __cmp__() method and a test for __cmp__().
Used try/except style in preference to has_key() followed by a look-up.
Used iteritem() where possible to save creating a long key list and
to save redundant lookups.
Expanded .update() to look for the most helpful methods first and gradually
work down to a mininum expected interface.
Expanded documentation to be more clear on how to use the class.

Document the available command line flags for bdist_wininst, which are
...
avaliable in the Python 2.2 branch.
I've left out some flags which are more thought for debugging, if
someone needs them, he can always look at the output of --help.
I'm sure Fred will make some adjustments, so I'll only mark this as a
2.2 bugfix candidate.
There are more options available in the current CVS bdist_wininst,
I will document them after this is in.

Armin Rigo's Draconian but effective fix for

internal "immutable list type" is gone! OTOH, if you look at a list
*while* it's being sorted now, it will appear to be empty. Better
than a core dump.
