mismatches. At least I hope this fixes them all.
This reverts part of my change from yesterday that converted everything
in Parser/*.c to use PyObject_* API. The encoding doesn't really need
to use PyMem_*, however, it uses new_string() which must return PyMem_*
for handling the result of PyOS_Readline() which returns PyMem_* memory.
If there were 2 versions of new_string() one that returned PyMem_*
for tokens and one that return PyObject_* for encodings that could
also fix this problem. I'm not sure which version would be clearer.
This seems to fix both Guido's and Phillip's problems, so it's good enough
for now. After this change, it would be good to review Parser/*.c
for consistent use of the 2 memory APIs.
This was the result of inconsistent use of PyMem_* and PyObject_* allocators.
By changing to use PyObject_* allocator almost everywhere, this removes
the inconsistency.
- SF Bug #772896, unknown encoding results in MemoryError, which is not helpful
I will only backport the segfault fix. I'll let Anthony decide if he wants
the other changes backported. I will do the backport if asked.
(see Patch 512981). I changed stdin to sys_stdin in the body of the
function, but did not change stderr to sys_stdout, though I suspect that may
be the correct course. I don't know the code involved well enough to judge.
more trivial lexical helper macros so that uses of these guys expand
to nothing at all when they're not enabled. This should help sub-
standard compilers that can't do a good job of optimizing away the
previous "(void)0" expressions.
Py_DECREF: There's only one definition of this now. Yay! That
was that last one in the family defined multiple times in an #ifdef
maze.
Py_FatalError(): Changed the char* signature to const char*.
_Py_NegativeRefcount(): New helper function for the Py_REF_DEBUG
expansion of Py_DECREF. Calling an external function cuts down on
the volume of generated code. The previous inline expansion of abort()
didn't work as intended on Windows (the program often kept going, and
the error msg scrolled off the screen unseen). _Py_NegativeRefcount
calls Py_FatalError instead, which captures our best knowledge of
how to abort effectively across platforms.
Highlights: import and friends will understand any of \r, \n and \r\n
as end of line. Python file input will do the same if you use mode 'U'.
Everything can be disabled by configuring with --without-universal-newlines.
See PEP278 for details.
Work around intrcheck.c's desire to pass 'PyErr_CheckSignals' to
'Py_AddPendingCall' by providing a (static) wrapper function that has the
right number of arguments.

(This is not exactly what Vladimir posted to the patches list; I've
made a few changes, and Vladimir sent me a fix in private email for a
problem that only occurs in debug mode. I'm also holding back on his
change to main.c, which seems unnecessary to me.)
* many files: made some functions static; removed "extern int errno;".
* frozenmain.c: fixed bugs introduced on 24 June...
* flmodule.c: remove 1.5 bw compat hacks, add new functions in 2.2a
(and some old functions that were omitted).
* timemodule.c: added MSDOS floatsleep version .
* pgenmain.c: changed exit() to goaway() and added defn of goaway().
* intrcheck.c: add hack (to UNIX only) so interrupting 3 times
will exit from a hanging program. The second interrupt prints
a message explaining this to the user.
* Stubs for faster implementation of local variables (not yet finished)
* Added function name to code object. Print it for code and function
objects. THIS MAKES THE .PYC FILE FORMAT INCOMPATIBLE (the version
number has changed accordingly)
* Print address of self for built-in methods
* New internal functions getattro and setattro (getattr/setattr with
string object arg)
* Replaced "dictobject" with more powerful "mappingobject"
* New per-type functio tp_hash to implement arbitrary object hashing,
and hashobject() to interface to it
* Added built-in functions hash(v) and hasattr(v, 'name')
* classobject: made some functions static that accidentally weren't;
added __hash__ special instance method to implement hash()
* Added proper comparison for built-in methods and functions
