SF patch #872326 : Generator expression implementation
...
(Code contributed by Jiwon Seo.)
The documentation portion of the patch is being re-worked and will be
checked-in soon. Likewise, PEP 289 will be updated to reflect Guido's
rationale for the design decisions on binding behavior (as described in
in his patch comments and in discussions on python-dev).
The test file, test_genexps.py, is written in doctest format and is
meant to exercise all aspects of the the patch. Further additions are
welcome from everyone. Please stress test this new feature as much as
possible before the alpha release.

Implementation of patch 869468
...
Allow the user to create Tkinter.Tcl objects which are
just like Tkinter.Tk objects except that they do not
initialize Tk. This is useful in circumstances where the
script is being run on machines that do not have an X
server running -- in those cases, Tk initialization fails,
even if no window is ever created.
Includes documentation change and tests.
Tested on Linux, Solaris and Windows.

Fine tune the speed/space trade-off for overallocating small lists.
...
The Py2.3 approach overallocated small lists by up to 8 elements.
The last checkin would limited this to one but slowed down (by 20 to 30%)
the creation of small lists between 3 to 8 elements.
This tune-up balances the two, limiting overallocation to 3 elements
(significantly reducing space consumption from Py2.3) and running faster
than the previous checkin.
The first part of the growth pattern (0, 4, 8, 16) neatly meshes with
allocators that trigger data movement only when crossing a power of two
boundary. Also, then even numbers mesh well with common data alignments.

The format of the string data used in the imageop module is described
...
as "This is the same format as used by gl.lrectwrite() and the imgfile
module." This implies a certain byte order in multi-byte pixel
formats. However, the code was originally written on an SGI
(big-endian) and *uses* the fact that bytes are stored in a particular
order in ints. This means that the code uses and produces different
byte order on little-endian systems.
This fix adds a module-level flag "backward_compatible" (default not
set, and if not set, behaves as if set to 1--i.e. backward compatible)
that can be used on a little-endian system to use the same byte order
as the SGI. Using this flag it is then possible to prepare
SGI-compatible images on a little-endian system.
This patch is the result of a (small) discussion on python-dev and was
submitted to SourceForge as patch #874358 .
