* Default to using /dev/tty for the password prompt and input before
falling back to sys.stdin and sys.stderr.
* Use sys.stderr instead of sys.stdout.
* print the 'password may be echoed' warning to stream used to display
the prompt rather than always sys.stderr.
* warn() with GetPassWarning when input may be echoed.

I finally got the time to update and merge Mark's and my trunk-math branch. The patch is collaborated work of Mark Dickinson and me. It was mostly done a few months ago. The patch fixes a lot of loose ends and edge cases related to operations with NaN, INF, very small values and complex math.
...
The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)

Re-implement the 'warnings' module in C. This allows for usage of the
...
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.

Issue 2408: remove the _types module
...
It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
when they can easily be obtained with python code.
These expressions even work with Jython.
I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
at least this change makes it simpler.

Force zlib.crc32 and zlib.adler32 to return a signed integer on all platforms
...

This somewhat odd behavior of returning a signed is maintained in 2.x for
compatibility reasons of always returning an integer rather than a long object.
Fixes Issue1202 for Python 2.6

Added a footnote to each pointing out that for XML output if an encoding
