which I can cast void* to and back again without losing information".
In pyport.h, we typedef Py_uintptr_t to mean this thing, which if the
platform supports, will be uintptr_t (otherwise, other accomodations
are made).
by the following.
typedef in a portable way the Python name for the C9X uintptr_t type.
This latter is the most portable way to spell an integral type to
which a void* can be cast to and back again without losing
information. Parallel checkin hacks configure to check if the
platform/compiler supports the C9X name.
returns an xrange object, not a range object, despite the name of the
source file they're implemented in.
In the list of comparison operators, list != before <>, since <> is

name as n'. By doing some twists and turns, "as" is not a reserved word.
There is a slight change in semantics for 'from module import name' (it will
now honour the 'global' keyword) but only in cases that are explicitly
undocumented.
is no __getslice__ available. Also does the same for C extension types.
Includes rudimentary documentation (it could use a cross reference to the
section on slice objects, I couldn't figure out how to do that) and a test
suite for all Python __hooks__ I could think of, including the new
behaviour.
shutdown time, but CVS log entry for revision 2.45 explains why this
is so. Simply include a comment so we don't have to re-figure it out
again 5 years from now.
