this clarifies that they are part of an internal API (albeit shared
between pickle.py, copy_reg.py and cPickle.c).
I'd like to do the same for copy_reg.dispatch_table, but worry that it
might be used by existing code. This risk doesn't exist for the
extension registry.
module. This increases code coverage of Python/sysmodule.c
from 68% to 77% (on Linux).
The script doesn't exercise the error branch that handles an evil
or lost sys.excepthook in Python/pythonrun.c::PyErr_PrintEx().
Also this script might not work on Jython in its current form.

Backport candidate I think.
outcome as __slotnames__ on the class. (Like __slots__, it's not safe
to ask for this as an attribute -- you must look for it in the
specific class's __dict__. But it must be set using attribute
notation, because __dict__ is a read-only proxy.)
* Treat major, minor numbers of HTTP version as separate integers
* Fix errors if version string is "HTTP/1.2.3" or even simply "BLAH".

HTTP request the self.command wasn't set yet; force
self.command to be initialized to None.
are actually getting generated. Add helpered method
ensure_opcode_in_pickle to do a correct job checking for that. Changed
test_long1(), test_long4(), and test_short_tuples() to use it.
huge. On older Linux systems, the C library's strtod() apparently
gives up before seeing the end of the string when it sees so many
digits that it thinks the result must be Infinity. (It is wrong, BTW
-- there could be an "e-10000" hiding behind 10,000 digits.) The
shorter shuge still tests what it's testing, without relying on
strtod() doing a super job.
exception, ResourceDenied. This is used to distinguish between tests that
are skipped for other reasons (platform support, missing data, etc.) from
those that are skipped because a "resource" has not been enabled. This
prevents those tests from being reported as unexpected skips for the
platform; those should only be considered unexpected skips if the resource
were enabled.

loops. Renamed DATA and BINDATA to DATA0 and DATA1. Included
disassemblies, but noted why we can't test them. Added XXX comment to
cPickle about a mysterious comment, where pickle and cPickle diverge
in how they number PUT indices.
Assorted code cleanups; e.g., sizeof(char) is 1 by definition, so there's
no need to do things like multiply by sizeof(char) in hairy malloc
arguments. Fixed an undetected-overflow bug in readline_file().
longobject.c: Fixed a really stupid bug in the new _PyLong_NumBits.
pickle.py: Fixed stupid bug in save_long(): When proto is 2, it
wrote LONG1 or LONG4, but forgot to return then -- it went on to
append the proto 1 LONG opcode too.
Fixed equally stupid cancelling bugs in load_long1() and
load_long4(): they *returned* the unpickled long instead of pushing
it on the stack. The return values were ignored. Tests passed
before only because save_long() pickled the long twice.
Fixed bugs in encode_long().
Noted that decode_long() is quadratic-time despite our hopes,
because long(string, 16) is still quadratic-time in len(string).
It's hex() that's linear-time. I don't know a way to make decode_long()
linear-time in Python, short of maybe transforming the 256's-complement
bytes into marshal's funky internal format, and letting marshal decode
that. It would be more valuable to make long(string, 16) linear time.
pickletester.py: Added a global "protocols" vector so tests can try
all the protocols in a sane way. Changed test_ints() and test_unicode()
to do so. Added a new test_long(), but the tail end of it is disabled
because it "takes forever" under pickle.py (but runs very quickly under
cPickle: cPickle proto 2 for longs is linear-time).
anymore either, so don't. This also allows to get rid of obscure code
making __getnewargs__ identical to __getstate__ (hmm ... hope there
wasn't more to this than I realize!).
longer needs to be public, and shoudn't be public because all datetime
objects are immutable. The Python implementation has changed
accordingly, but still need to change the C implementation.
The 4th item can be None or an iterator yielding list items, which are
used to append() or extend() the object. The 5th item can be None or
an iterator yielding a dict's (key, value) pairs, which are stuffed
into the object using __setitem__.
Also (as a separate, though related, feature) add "batching" for list
and dict items. If you pickled a dict or list with a million items in
the past, it would push a million items onto the stack. It now pushes
only 1000 items at a time on the stack, using repeated APPENDS or
SETITEMS opcodes. (For lists, I hope that using many short extend()
calls doesn't exhibit quadratic behavior.)
__module__ is the string name of the module the function was defined
in, just like __module__ of classes. In some cases, particularly for
C functions, the __module__ may be None.
Change PyCFunction_New() from a function to a macro, but keep an
unused copy of the function around so that we don't change the binary
API.
Change pickle's save_global() to use whichmodule() if __module__ is
None, but add the __module__ logic to whichmodule() since it might be
used outside of pickle.
