requires them. Disable executable bits and shebang lines in test and
benchmark files in order to prevent using a random system python, and in
source files of modules which don't provide command line interface.
imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".
This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
Lib/email/test/data).
Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)
and replaces them with a new API verify(). As a result the regression
suite will also perform its tests in optimization mode.

'verbose' flag ala GvR updated test harness architecture.
Old way:
verbose = 0
if __name__ == '__main__':
verbose = 1
New way:
from test_support import verbose
Some other small readablility and functionality updates.
I've attempted to make a test that silently exits if either
module dl is not present, we're not on a Sun OS, or a standard
shared library ('/usr/lib/libresolv.so') is not found... Otherwise,
It does a simple test of dlmodule on that library. I *think*
this would be ok to add to testall.py but I'll wait till I hear
some feedback on the liberalness of this approach.
