- Do not compile unicodeobject, unicodectype, and unicodedata if Unicode is disabled
- check for Py_USING_UNICODE in all places that use Unicode functions
- disables unicode literals, and the builtin functions
- add the types.StringTypes list
- remove Unicode literals from most tests.
Python warning which can be catched by means of the Python warning
framework.
It also adds two new APIs which hopefully make it easier for Python
to switch to buffer overflow safe [v]snprintf() APIs for error
reporting et al. The two new APIs are PyOS_snprintf() and
PyOS_vsnprintf() and work just like the standard ones in many
C libs. On platforms which have snprintf(), the native APIs are used,
on all other an emulation with snprintf() tries to do its best.
Add definitions of INT_MAX and LONG_MAX to pyport.h.
Remove includes of limits.h and conditional definitions of INT_MAX
and LONG_MAX elsewhere.
This closes SourceForge patch #101659 and bug #115323.
Add three new convenience functions to the PyModule_*() family:
PyModule_AddObject(), PyModule_AddIntConstant(), PyModule_AddStringConstant().
This closes SourceForge patch #101233.

This should catch future version incompatibilities on Windows. Alas,
this doesn't help for 1.5 vs. 1.6; but it will help for 1.6 vs. 2.0.
Here's a patch which changes modsupport to add 'u' and 'u#',
to support building Unicode objects from a null-terminated
Py_UNICODE *, and a Py_UNICODE * with length, respectively.
[Conversion from 'U' to 'u' by Fred, based on python-dev comments.]
Note that the use of None for NULL values of the Py_UNICODE* value is
still in; I'm not sure of the conclusion on that issue.
The MS compiler doesn't call it 'long long', it uses __int64,
so a new #define, LONG_LONG, has been added and all occurrences
of 'long long' are replaced with it.
This is a bit of a hack: when the shared library is loaded, the module
name is "package.module", but the module calls Py_InitModule*() with just
"module" for the name. The shared library loader squirrels away the true
name of the module in _Py_PackageContext, and Py_InitModule*() will
substitute this (if the name actually matches).
Py_Initmodule(), which is a macro wrapper around it).
The return value is now a NULL pointer if the initialization failed.
This may make old modules fail with a SEGFAULT, since they don't
expect this kind of failure. That's OK, since (a) it "never" happens,
and (b) they would fail with a fatal error otherwise, anyway.
Tons of extension modules should now check the return value of
Py_Initmodule*() -- that's on my TODO list.
bltinmodule.c: fixed coerce() nightmare in ternary pow().
modsupport.c (initmodule2): pass METH_FREENAME flag to newmethodobject().
pythonrun.c: move flushline() into and around print_error().
Include/modsupport.h: moved getargs() to its own file and
re-implemented it entirely to support optional arguments, multiple
arguments without surrounding parentheses
(when called as newgetargs()), and better error messages
* 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.
* Fixcprt.py: added [-y file] option, do only files younger than file.
* modsupport.[ch]: added vmkvalue().
* intobject.c: use mkvalue().
* stringobject.c: added "formatstring"; renamed string* to string_*;
ceval.c: call formatstring for string % value.
* longobject.c: close memory leak in divmod.
* parsetok.c: set result node to NULL when returning an error.
listfontnames, bitmap ops.
* listobject.c: use mkvalue() when possible; avoid weird error when
calling append() without args.
* modsupport.c: new feature in getargs(): if the format string
contains a semicolor the string after that is used as the error
message instead of "bad argument list (format %s)" when there's an
error.
* various modules: added 1993 to copyright.
* thread.c: added copyright notice.
* ceval.c: minor change to error message for "+"
* stdwinmodule.c: check for error from wfetchcolor
* config.c: MS-DOS fixes (define PYTHONPATH, use DELIM, use osdefs.h)
* Add declaration of inittab to import.h
* sysmodule.c: added sys.builtin_module_names
* xxmodule.c, xxobject.c: fix minor errors
* posixmodule.c: move extern function declarations to top
* listobject.c: cmp() arguments must be void* if __STDC__
* Makefile, allobjects.h, panelmodule.c, modsupport.c: get rid of
strdup() -- it is a portability risk
* Makefile: enclosed ranlib command in parentheses for Sequent Make
which aborts if the command is not found even if '-' is present
* timemodule.c: time() returns a floating point number, in microsecond
precision if BSD_TIME is defined.
