underlying dictionaries, there were no reasonable use cases (lexicographic
sorting of a list of sets is somewhat esoteric). Frees the operators
for other uses (such as strict subset and superset comparisons).
Updated documentation and test suite accordingly.
the inplace operators. The strategy is to have the operator overloading
code do the work and then to define equivalent method calls which rely on
the operators. The changes facilitate proper application of TypeError
and NonImplementedErrors.
Added corresponding tests to the test suite to make sure both the operator
and method call versions get exercised.
Add missing tests for difference_update().
wrong thing for a unicode subclass when there were zero string
replacements. The example given in the SF bug report was only one way
to trigger this; replacing a string of length >= 2 that's not found is
another. The code would actually write outside allocated memory if
replacement string was longer than the search string.
(I wonder how many more of these are lurking? The unicode code base
is full of wonders.)
Bugfix candidate; this same bug is present in 2.2.1.
base class (WrapperTestCase) instead, and call it repeatedly in the
methods that used to have a loop-over-subcases. Much simpler.
Rename perennial temp variable 't' to 'text'.
<peter@engcorp.com> based on a test script that's been kicking around my
home directory for a couple of months now and only saw the light of day
because I included it when I sent textwrap.py to python-dev for review.
Also, don't call gettempdir() in the default expression for the 'dir'
argument to various functions; use 'dir=None' for the default and
insert 'if dir is None: dir = gettemptir()' in the bodies. That way
the work done by gettempdir is postponed until needed.
[ 587993 ] SET_LINENO killer
Remove SET_LINENO. Tracing is now supported by inspecting co_lnotab.
Many sundry changes to document and adapt to this change.

to the docs is ready to go, but blocked by another JackMacLock in the
doc directory.
do bizarre things to get a temp file, I changed it to use mkstemp instead
of NamedTemporaryFile. This tried to leave the file open while passing
its name to execfile(). On Win2K (but not Win9X), though, a file created
with O_TEMPORARY cannot be opened again, so the test failed with a
permission error when execfile tried to open it. Closer to the truth:
a file created with O_TEMPORARY can be opened again, but only if the
file is also created with SHARE_DELETE access via the Win32 CreateFile()
function. There's no way to get at that from MS's version of libc, though
(we'd have to ditch the "std" C file functions in favor of Win32 API
calls).
