The bug report title isn't correct, but was on the right track.
Rev 2.13 applied a patch intended to improve asinh and acosh, but the
author mistakenly replaced the body of asin with their new code for asinh.
See bug report for all the gory details.
This patch: (a) puts the "new" (as of 2.13) asinh code into the asinh
function; and, (b) repairs asin via what Abramowitz & Stegun say it should
be (which is probably the same as what 2.12 did for asin, although I got
tired of matching parentheses before being 100% sure of that -- and I don't
care! The source of the old code is a mystery, and I *know* why I picked
the new code.).
* fixes the zlib decompress sync flush bug as reported in bug #124981
* avoids repeat calls to (in|de)flateEnd when destroying (de)compression
objects
* raises exception when allocating unused_data fails
* fixes memory leak when allocating unused_data fails
* raises exception when allocating decompress data fails
* removes vestigial code from decompress flush now that decompression
returns all available data
* tidies code so object compress/decompress/flush routines are consistent
NamedNodeMap.setNamedItem(). Martin, should I sync the PyXML tree, too,
or do you want to do it? (I don't know if you're wrapping the 0.6.4
release right now.)
cookies that contain '=' as part of the value. This patch modifies
Cookie.py to allow '=' as a legal character, and to make the key
search nongreedy so it stops at the first '='.
save the __builtin__ module in a static variable. But this doesn't
work across Py_Finalise()/Py_Initialize()! It also doesn't work when
using multiple interpreter states created with PyInterpreterState_New().
So I'm ripping out this small optimization.
This was probably broken since PyImport_Import() was introduced in
1997! We really need a better test suite for multiple interpreter
states and repeatedly initializing.
This fixes the problems Barry reported in Demo/embed/loop.c.
sgmllib does not recognize HTML attributes containing the semicolon
';' character. This may be in accordance with the HTML spec, but there
are sites that use it (excite.com) and the browsers I regularly use
(IE5, Netscape, Opera) all handle it. Doug Fort Downright Software LLC
-shared does the following things:
- invoke the linker with -G -dy -z text (the latter only if
-mimpure-text was not given)
- drop crt1.o from the list of objects being linked
- drop -lc from the list of libraries being linked
OTOH, -G is just passed through to the linker.
The things that -shared does are necessary: crt1.o defines _start, and
requires main, so it should not be present in a shared library.
Likewise, -z text should be used to detect position-dependent code at
compile time.

Here is what I've hacked together over some spare time
at the weekend. I would appreciate feedback, as I've told
before I'm neither a great author, nor native english speaker,
nor anything else.
Mostly I've completed (and written) docs for bdist_wininst
(where I'm an experert for), also I've started some stuff
for the data_files and scripts option.
Should I continue in this way? Would others like to jump in?
