rfc822.AddressList incorrectly handles empty address.
"<>" is converted to None and should be "".
AddressList.__str__() fails on None.
I got an email with such an address and my program
failed processing it.
Example:
>>> import rfc822
>>> rfc822.AddressList("<>").addresslist
[('', None)]
>>> str(rfc822.AddressList("<>"))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "/usr/lib/python2.1/rfc822.py", line 753, in __str__
return ", ".join(map(dump_address_pair,
self.addresslist))
TypeError: sequence item 0: expected string, None found
[His solution: in the internal routine AddrlistClass.getrouteaddr(),
initialize adlist to "".]
Patch from Mark Hammond, plus code rearrangement and comments from me.
posix_do_stat(): Windows-specific code could try to free() stack
memory in some cases when a path ending with a forward or backward slash
was passed to os.stat().
metaclass, reported by Dan Parisien.
Objects that are instances of custom metaclasses, i.e. whose ob_type
is a subclass of PyType_Type, should be pickled the same as new-style
classes (objects whose ob_type is PyType_Type). This can't be done
through the existing dispatch switches, and the __reduce__ trick
doesn't work for these, since it finds the unbound __reduce__ for
instances of the class (inherited from PyBaseObject_Type). So check
explicitly using PyType_IsSubtype().

Objects that are instances of custom metaclasses, i.e. whose class is

binascii_b2a_base64(): We didn't allocate enough buffer space for very
short inputs (e.g., a 1-byte input can produce a 5-byte output, but we
only allocated 2 bytes). I expect that malloc overheads absorbed the
overrun in practice, but computing a correct upper bound is a very simple
change.
This way, when a socket object is deleted after the socket module has
already been zapped by module shutdown, we don't get annoying warnings
about exceptions in __del__ methods.
crashes.
If no external zip-utility is found, the archive is created by the
zipfile module, which behaves different now than in 2.1: if the
zip-file is created in the root directory if the distribution, it will
contain an (empty) version of itself.
This triggered the above bug - so it's better to create the zip-file
far away in the TMP directory.
NULL, so that you can call PyType_Ready() to initialize a type that
is to be separately compiled with C on Windows.
inherit_special(): Add a long comment explaining that you have to set
tp_new if your base class is PyBaseObject_Type.
paren. This was there to worm around a stupid XEmacs bug, but since I
can't tickle the bug in newer XEmacsen (just tried w/21.4.5) it's
possible the problem has been fixed. We shouldn't have to be working
around editor bugs anyway.
If it crops up again, I'll report it (again) to the XEmacs crowd.
