SF bug #760703: SocketHandler and LogRecord don't work well together
SF bug #757821: logging module docs
Applied Vinay Sajip's patch with a few minor fixups and a NEWS item.
Patched __init__.py - added new function
makeLogRecord (for bug report 760703).
Patched handlers.py - updated some docstrings and
deleted some old commented-out code.
Patched test_logging.py to make use of makeLogRecord.
Patched liblogging.tex to fill documentation gaps (both

The interning of short strings violates the refcnt==1 assumption for
_PyString_Resize().
A simple fix is to boost the initial value of "totalnew" by 1.
Combined with an NULL argument to PyString_FromStringAndSize(),
this assures that resulting format string is not interned.
This will remain true even if the implementation of
PyString_FromStringAndSize() changes because only the uninitialized
strings that can be interned are those of zero length.

Still a bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 final, but waiting for Fred to get a
chance to chime in.
Someone review this, please! Final releases are getting close, Fred
(the weakref guy) won't be around until Tuesday, and the pre-patch
code can indeed raise spurious RuntimeErrors in the presence of
threads or mutating comparison functions.
See the bug report for my confusions: I can't see any reason for why
__delitem__ iterated over the keys. The new one-liner implementation
is much faster, can't raise RuntimeError, and should be better-behaved
in all respects wrt threads.

test_weak_keyed_cascading_deletes fail before this patch.

This file isn't meant to be executed, it's data input for test_tokenize.py.
The problem with the .py extension is that it uses "non-standard"

change, since exact line and column numbers are part of the
tokenize.tokenize() output getting tested.
Reverted a Py2.3b1 change to iterator in subclasses of list and tuple.
They had been changed to use __getitem__ whenever it had been overriden

This caused some usabilty and performance problems. Also, it was
inconsistent with the rest of python where many container methods
access the underlying object directly without first checking for
an overridden getter. Users needing a change in iterator behavior
should override it directly.

This problem is related to a wrong behavior from mark_save/restore(),
which don't restore the mark_stack_base before restoring the marks.
Greg's suggestion was to change the asserts, which happen to be
the only recursive ops that can continue the loop, but the problem would
happen to any operation with the same behavior. So, rather than
hardcoding this into asserts, I have changed mark_save/restore() to
always restore the stackbase before restoring the marks.
Both solutions should fix these two cases, presented by Greg:
>>> re.match('(a)(?:(?=(b)*)c)*', 'abb').groups()
('b', None)
>>> re.match('(a)((?!(b)*))*', 'abb').groups()
('b', None, None)
The rest of the bug and patch in #725149 must be discussed further.
within repeats of alternatives. The only change to the original
patch was to convert the tests to the new test_re.py file.
This patch fixes cases like:
>>> re.match('((a)|b)*', 'abc').groups()
('b', '')
Which is wrong (it's impossible to match the empty string),
and incompatible with other regex systems, like the following
examples show:
% perl -e '"abc" =~ /^((a)|b)*/; print "$1 $2\n";'
b a
% echo "abc" | sed -r -e "s/^((a)|b)*/\1 \2|/"

"import test.autotest", temp_imp failed because the import lock was
still held at the test's end (the test assumed it wouldn't be), and
then a RuntimeError got raised at the end of the entire suite run because
test_imp cleared the import lock as a side effect of trying to test that
the import lock wasn't held (but a legitimate import is in progress,
so the lock should be held, and the import machinery complained when it
found that the lock was unexpectedly cleareed).
Also removed the unittest scaffolding. It didn't buy anything here, and
the test was raising regrtest's TestFailed instead of using the unittest

This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).
As a side issue on this bug, it was noted that list and tuple iterators
used macros to directly access containers and would not recognize
__getitem__ overrides. If the method is overridden, the patch returns
a generic sequence iterator which calls the __getitem__ method; otherwise,
it returns a high custom iterator with direct access to container elements.
using a build directory just inside the source directory and saving
just one copy of the test data in the source tree, rather than having
a copy in each build directory.
I've applied a modified version of Greg Chapman's patch. I've included
the fixes without introducing the reorganization mentioned, for the sake
of stability. Also, the second fix mentioned in the patch don't fix the
mentioned problem anymore, because of the change introduced by patch
#720991 (by Greg as well). The new fix wasn't complicated though, and is
included as well.
As a note. It seems that there are other places that require the
"protection" of LASTMARK_SAVE()/LASTMARK_RESTORE(), and are just waiting
for someone to find how to break them. Particularly, I belive that every
recursion of SRE_MATCH() should be protected by these macros. I won't
do that right now since I'm not completely sure about this, and we don't
have much time for testing until the next release.

- range() now works even if the arguments are longs with magnitude
larger than sys.maxint, as long as the total length of the sequence

- Expose NullTranslations and GNUTranslations to __all__
- Set the default charset to iso-8859-1. It used to be None, which
would cause problems with .ugettext() if the file had no charset
parameter. Arguably, the po/mo file would be broken, but I still think
iso-8859-1 is a reasonable default.
- Add a "coerce" default argument to GNUTranslations's constructor. The
reason for this is that in Zope, we want all msgids and msgstrs to be
Unicode. For the latter, we could use .ugettext() but there isn't
currently a mechanism for Unicode-ifying msgids.
The plan then is that the charset parameter specifies the encoding for
both the msgids and msgstrs, and both are decoded to Unicode when read.
For example, we might encode po files with utf-8. I think the GNU
gettext tools don't care.
Since this could potentially break code [*] that wants to use the
encoded interface .gettext(), the constructor flag is added, defaulting
to False. Most code I suspect will want to set this to True and use
.ugettext().
- A few other minor changes from the Zope project, including asserting
that a zero-length msgid must have a Project-ID-Version header for it to
be counted as the metadata record.

These changes will be backported, since part of the changes

These never failed in 2.3, and the tests confirm it. They still blow up
in the 2.2 branch, despite that all the gc-vs-__del__ fixes from 2.3
have been backported (and this is expected -- 2.2 needs more work than
2.3 needed).
of PyObject_HasAttr(); the former promises never to execute
arbitrary Python code. Undid many of the changes recently made to
worm around the worst consequences of that PyObject_HasAttr() could
execute arbitrary Python code.
Compatibility is hard to discuss, because the dangerous cases are
so perverse, and much of this appears to rely on implementation
accidents.
To start with, using hasattr() to check for __del__ wasn't only
dangerous, in some cases it was wrong: if an instance of an old-
style class didn't have "__del__" in its instance dict or in any
base class dict, but a getattr hook said __del__ existed, then
hasattr() said "yes, this object has a __del__". But
instance_dealloc() ignores the possibility of getattr hooks when
looking for a __del__, so while object.__del__ succeeds, no
__del__ method is called when the object is deleted. gc was
therefore incorrect in believing that the object had a finalizer.
The new method doesn't suffer that problem (like instance_dealloc(),
_PyObject_Lookup() doesn't believe __del__ exists in that case), but
does suffer a somewhat opposite-- and even more obscure --oddity:
if an instance of an old-style class doesn't have "__del__" in its
instance dict, and a base class does have "__del__" in its dict,
and the first base class with a "__del__" associates it with a
descriptor (an object with a __get__ method), *and* if that
descriptor raises an exception when __get__ is called, then
(a) the current method believes the instance does have a __del__,
but (b) hasattr() does not believe the instance has a __del__.
While these disagree, I believe the new method is "more correct":
because the descriptor *will* be called when the object is
destructed, it can execute arbitrary Python code at the time the
object is destructed, and that's really what gc means by "has a
finalizer": not specifically a __del__ method, but more generally
the possibility of executing arbitrary Python code at object
destruction time. Code in a descriptor's __get__() executed at
destruction time can be just as problematic as code in a
__del__() executed then.
So I believe the new method is better on all counts.
Bugfix candidate, but it's unclear to me how all this differs in
the 2.2 branch (e.g., new-style and old-style classes already
took different gc paths in 2.3 before this last round of patches,
but don't in the 2.2 branch).
externally unreachable objects with finalizers, and externally unreachable
objects without finalizers reachable from such objects. This allows us
to call has_finalizer() at most once per object, and so limit the pain of
nasty getattr hooks. This fixes the failing "boom 2" example Jeremy
posted (a non-printing variant of which is now part of test_gc), via never
triggering the nasty part of its __getattr__ method.

pack_float, pack_double, save_float: All the routines for creating

the exponent value, and then unpacking yields a result wrong by a factor

than intended, or fail to catch overflow *caused* by rounding.

Quoting the path doesn't work on Win2K (cmd.exe) regardless, this is just
a hack to let the test pass again on Win2K (so long as Python isn't
installed in a path that does contain an embedded space). On Win2K it
looks like we'd also have to add a second pair of double quotes, around
the entire command line.
