Patch #1051321 (fixes bugs 1010196, 1013525), by Mike Brown:
...
* Document hasFeature(), createDocument(), CreateDocumentType(),
hasAttribute(), hasAttributeNS().
* In the documentation for createDocument(), it is now stated that the Python
DOM API allows implementations to forego creation of the document element
child node, if no namespace and local name arguments are given. (This
possibility is left open and unaddressed in the W3C spec).
* Addition by me: use 'name' rather than 'attname', for consistency with the
DOM specification and the Python DOM API implementation.

Patch #943206 :
...
`glob.glob()` currently calls itself recursively to build a list of matches of
the dirname part of the pattern and then filters by the basename part. This is
effectively BFS. ``glob.glob('*/*/*/*/*/foo')`` will build a huge list of all
directories 5 levels deep even if only a handful of them contain a ``foo``
entry. A generator-based recusion would never have to store these list at once
by implementing DFS. This patch converts the `glob` function to an `iglob`
recursive generator . `glob()` now just returns ``list(iglob(pattern))``.
I also cleaned up the code a bit (reduced duplicate `has_magic()` checks and
created a second `glob0` helper func so that the main loop need not be
duplicated).
Thanks to Cherniavsky Beni for the patch!
