Revise max() and min() to comply with the 8/2/2004 update to the specification
...
(version 1.45):
The max and min operations follow the rules in the current IEEE 754 revision draft:
if one operand is a quiet NaN and the other is number, then the number is always returned
if both operands are finite and equal in numerical value then an ordering is applied:
if the signs differ then max returns the operand with the positive sign and
min returns the operand with the negative sign; if the signs are the same then
the exponent is used to select the result.

version 2.39 of dectest.zip adds some new test files and because
some existing test files were getting skipped).
* Remove two docstrings which cluttered unittest's output.
* Simplify a for-loop with a list comprehension.

The attached patch fixes FTBFS on GNU/k*BSD. The problem happens on GNU/k*BSD
...
because GNU/k*BSD uses gnu pth to provide pthreads, but will also happen on any
system that does the same.
python fails to build because it doesn't detect gnu pth in pthread
emulation. See C comments in patch for details.

Minor improvements to the threading introduction:
...
* Expand the example to show a join.
* Mention the use case of I/O running concurrent with a computational
thread.
* Be a tad more forceful about recommending Queue over other approaches
to synchonization.
* Eliminate discussion around having a single interpreter. This is a
more advanced discussion that belongs in the library reference and
in a section on extending and embedding.
