90d62ab0a1 Since this module is used as a fallback in case no built-in modules
have been configured, string.atof() should not fail when "import re"
fails (usually because pcre is not there).

This opens up a tiny security hole: *if* an attacker can make "import
re" fail, they can also make string.atof(arbitrary_string) evaluate
the arbitrary string.  Nothing to keep me awake at night...

e680546894 Don't specify base 0 to string.atoi when unpickling integers in text
mode.  The pickler always uses base 10 so the default base should be
fine.  (The base gets us in trouble when there's no strop module, as
the atoi() in string.py only supports base 10.  This is for JPython.)

24e62e2c7c Modified quicksort by Raymund Galvin, after studying the GNU libg++
quicksort.  This should be much faster if there are lots of
duplicates, and otherwise at least as good.

d666eae55a Adding a new project: pythonw, or WinMain.c, containing a main program
that doesn't have a console window attached.  stdout/stderr are lost.
This is handy though for things like grail.

fc5d8b198a libainstall: Install Modules/Setup.thread in addition to Modules/Setup and
Modules/Setup.local.

	Guido:  I hope this is ok; it seems to make a lot of sense to get the
	whole trio of module config files installed as a set rather than
	doing it partially.

be1eb0d9ed (1) call mktime() just before strftime(); it normalizes the buffer and
may set the timezone name for BSD systems...

(2) fake all of the timezone variables for the mac.

c5aec05967 Separated the definitions of ntohs(), ntohl(), htons(), htonl(). Separate
descriptions really make things look a bit better, and should improve the
ability to re-purpose the content.

clean_key():  Override the standard LaTeX2HTML clean_key() to remove a

9716aaa14c Jim Fulton:
- Loading non-binary string pickles checks for insecure
          strings. This is needed because cPickle (still)
          uses a restricted eval to parse non-binary string pickles.
          This change is needed to prevent untrusted
          pickles like::

            "S'hello world'*2000000\012p0\012."

          from hosing an application.

        - User-defined types can now support unpickling without
          executing a constructor.

          The second value returned from __reduce__ can now be None,
          rather than an argument tuple. On unpickling, if the second
          value returned from __reduce__ during pickling was None, then
          rather than calling the first value returned from __reduce__,
          directly, the __basicnew__ method of the first value returned
          from __reduce__ is called without arguments.
