Capturing exceptions into names can lead to reference cycles though the __traceback__ attribute of the exceptions in some obscure cases that have been reported previously and fixed individually. As these variables are not used anyway, we can remove the binding to reduce the chances of creating reference cycles.
See for example GH-13135
Replace os.popen() with subprocess.Popen. Based on patch by Victor Stinner.
If the "gcc", "cc" or "objdump" command is not available, the code was
supposed to raise an OSError exception. But there was a bug in the code. The
shell code returns the exit code 10 if the required command is missing, and the
code tries to check for the status 10. The problem is that os.popen() doesn't
return the exit code directly, but a status which should be processed by
os.WIFEXITED() and os.WEXITSTATUS(). In practice, the exception was never
raised. The OSError exception was not documented and ctypes.util.find_library()
is expected to return None if the library is not found.
This reverts most of revision 3092cf163eb4. The change worked on x86
architectures, but did not work on ARM, probably due to extra ABI flags in
the ldconfig output.
importlib.machinery that provide the suffix details for import.
The attributes were not put on imp so as to compartmentalize
everything importlib needs for setting up imports in
importlib.machinery.
This also led to an indirect deprecation of inspect.getmoduleinfo() as
it directly returned imp.get_suffix's returned tuple which no longer
makes sense.
* Use str.startswith(tuple): I didn't know this Python feature, Python rocks!
* Replace sometimes sys.platform.startswith('linux') with
sys.platform == 'linux'
* sys.platform doesn't contain the major version on Cygwin on Mac OS X
(it's just 'cygwin' and 'darwin')

biarch systems. Try to rely on ldconfig only, without using objdump and gcc.

Merged changes from standalone version 2.3.3. This should probably all be
merged into the 2.5 maintenance branch:
- self->statement was not checked while fetching data, which could
lead to crashes if you used the pysqlite API in unusual ways.
Closing the cursor and continuing to fetch data was enough.
- Converters are stored in a converters dictionary. The converter name
is uppercased first. The old upper-casing algorithm was wrong and
was replaced by a simple call to the Python string's upper() method
instead.
-Applied patch by Glyph Lefkowitz that fixes the problem with
subsequent SQLITE_SCHEMA errors.
- Improvement to the row type: rows can now be iterated over and have a keys()
method. This improves compatibility with both tuple and dict a lot.
- A bugfix for the subsecond resolution in timestamps.
- Corrected the way the flags PARSE_DECLTYPES and PARSE_COLNAMES are
checked for. Now they work as documented.
- gcc on Linux sucks. It exports all symbols by default in shared
libraries, so if symbols are not unique it can lead to problems with
symbol lookup. pysqlite used to crash under Apache when mod_cache
was enabled because both modules had the symbol cache_init. I fixed
this by applying the prefix pysqlite_ almost everywhere. Sigh.
