The stdlib docs for package distribution and building extensions
are rather dated, and that isn't expected to change for 2.7 and
3.3.
The Python Packaging User Guide isn't complete either, but it's
already a much better road map for new users than the existing
stdlib docs.
This started out as an easy task, just add a section describing this
alternate scheme, but I found a lot of cleanup to do along the way:
- fixed inverted reST targets
- fixed entries for modules (hi abiflags!) or data files
- avoided duplicating the same options listing five or six times
- added missing entries for C headers locations
- added documentation for --install-lib
- fixed a few misuses of the option role (see #9312), but not all (not
worth the time, but will do it in packaging docs)
- fixed some markup
The paths fixes were done with an eye on the source code in the install
command, so they really describe what’s actually done. The situation on
Mac OS X is rather messy: the fix for #8084 touched site and sysconfig,
but distutils doesn’t use these files. I suspect we have a mismatched
stdlib at the moment, and the fix is not even clear (see the bug report
for further discussion).

Now in find, rfind, index, and rindex, you can use None as defaults,
as usual with slicing (both with str and unicode strings). This
fixes issue 1259.
For str only the stringobject.c file was modified. But for unicode,
I needed to repeat in the four functions a lot of code, so created
a new function that does part of the job for them (and placed it in
find.h, following a suggestion of Barry).
Also added tests for this behaviour.

Here's a patch which addresses this. It also fixes the indentation in
PySSL_SetError, bringing it into line with PEP 7, fixes a compile warning
about one of the OpenSSL macros, and makes the namespace a bit more
consistent. I've tested it on FC 7 and OS X 10.4.

Improve extended slicing support in builtin types and classes. Specifically:
- Specialcase extended slices that amount to a shallow copy the same way as
is done for simple slices, in the tuple, string and unicode case.
- Specialcase step-1 extended slices to optimize the common case for all
involved types.
- For lists, allow extended slice assignment of differing lengths as long
as the step is 1. (Previously, 'l[:2:1] = []' failed even though
'l[:2] = []' and 'l[:2:None] = []' do not.)
- Implement extended slicing for buffer, array, structseq, mmap and
UserString.UserString.
- Implement slice-object support (but not non-step-1 slice assignment) for
UserString.MutableString.
- Add tests for all new functionality.
