the finally clause. An exception here could happen when a daemon
thread exits after the threading module has already been trashed by
the import finalization, and there's not much of a point in trying to
insist doing the cleanup in that stage.
This should fix SF bug ##497111: active_limbo_lock error at program
exit.
2.1.2 and 2.2.1 Bugfix candidate!
deepcopy(), _reconstruct(): pass the memo to the other function, so
that recursive data structures built out of new-style objects may be
deeply copied correctly.
2.2.1 bugfix!

2.2.1 bugfix!
Instead of sending the real user and host, use "anonymous@" (i.e. no
host name at all!) as the default anonymous FTP password. This avoids
privacy violations.

alphabetical order (!), and the obsolete 'extend' directory is no
longer mentioned.
This and the erasure of the extend directory are 2.2.1 bugfix
candidates (but only of you want to be thorough -- it's not like
anybody cares :-).
doesn't have the _HEAPTYPE flag set, e.g. for time.struct_time and
posix.stat_result.
This fixes the immediate symptoms of SF bug #496873 (cPickle /
time.struct_time loop), replacing the infinite loop with an exception.
instead of begin_y and begin_x for derwin(), subpad(), and subwin().
Reported for derwin() by Eric Huss.
Added class annotations for the window methods so they would be properly
described in the index.
"interpolation" in the text, to make the string formatting material easier to
find.
This closes SF bug #487165.
Bugfix: this should be applied for Python 2.2.1.
in response to Skip's comments in SF bug #487165.
Make use of string methods instead of string module functions in most places.
Add (and make the default) a way to collapse symbol entries into a single
"Symbols" section in the generated index. This is similar to what makeindex
does, but does not include entries beginning with an underscore.
Removed the ancient "#define ANY void".
Bugfix candidate? Hard call. The bug report claims the existence of
this #define creates conflicts with other packages, which is easy to
believe. OTOH, some extension authors may still be relying on its
presence. I'm afraid you can't win on this one.
