classes was called with three arguments. This makes no sense, there's
no way to pass in the "modulo" 3rd argument as for __pow__, and
classic classes don't do this. [SF bug 620179]
I don't want to backport this to 2.2.2, because it could break
existing code that has developed a work-around. Code in 2.2.2 that
wants to use __ipow__ and wants to be forward compatible with 2.3
should be written like this:
def __ipow__(self, exponent, modulo=None):
...
Ben. If s is a byte string, make sure it can be converted to unicode
with the input codec, and from unicode with the output codec, or raise
a UnicodeError exception early. Skip this test (and the unicode->byte
string conversion) when the charset is our faux 8bit raw charset.
must be a Charset instance, not a string. The bug here was that
self._charset wasn't being converted to a Charset instance so later
.append() calls which used the default charset would break.
_split(): If the charset of the chunk is '8bit', return the chunk
unchanged. We can't safely split it, so this is the avenue of least
harm.
8-bit data, we cannot split it safely, so return the original string
unchanged.
_is8bitstring(): Helper function which returns True when we have a
byte string that contains non-ascii characters (i.e. mysterious 8-bit
data).
Also, it fixes a really egregious error in Header.encode() (really
in Header._encode_chunks()) that could cause a header to grow and
grow each time encode() was called if output_codec was different
from input_codec.
Also, fix a typo.
refactor a bit and clean up.

initializing GNU readline, setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "") is called, which
changes the <ctype.h> macros to use the "default" locale (which isn't
the *initial* locale -- the initial locale is the "C" locale in which
only ASCII characters are printable). When the default locale is e.g.
Latin-1, the repr() of string objects can include 8-bit characters
with the high bit set; I believe this is due to the recent
PRINT_MULTIBYTE_STRING changes to stringobject.c. This in turn screws
up test_pyexpat and test_rotor, which depend on the repr() of 8-bit
strings with high bit characters.
The solution (for now) is to force the LC_CTYPE locale to "C" after
importing rlcompleter. This is the locale required by the test suite
anyway.
