Guido van Rossum 98bf58f1c6 SF patch #462296: Add attributes to os.stat results; by Nick Mathewson. 
This is a big one, touching lots of files.  Some of the platforms
aren't tested yet.  Briefly, this changes the return value of the
os/posix functions stat(), fstat(), statvfs(), fstatvfs(), and the
time functions localtime(), gmtime(), and strptime() from tuples into
pseudo-sequences.  When accessed as a sequence, they behave exactly as
before.  But they also have attributes like st_mtime or tm_year.  The
stat return value, moreover, has a few platform-specific attributes
that are not available through the sequence interface (because
everybody expects the sequence to have a fixed length, these couldn't
be added there).  If your platform's struct stat doesn't define
st_blksize, st_blocks or st_rdev, they won't be accessible from Python
either.

(Still missing is a documentation update.)

README 

This directory contains files for the RISC OS port of Python.
For more information about RISC OS see http://www.riscos.com/ .

This port is currently being maintained by Dietmar Schwertberger,
dietmar@schwertberger.de .

On http://www.schwertberger.de you may find compiled versions and libraries
as well as RISC OS specific documentation and extensions.


==========================================================================
Compiling:

1. Extract Files from archive directory 'Python-...' to a directory named
   '!Python'.
2. Use a tool like Rename to change filenames from '*/[ch]' into '[ch].*'.
3. Create missing directories with 'amu cdirs'.
4. Build with 'amu'.

I've only tested Acorn C/C++ 5.06 and amu.
