f171540ab8 Change int() so that passing a string, unicode, float or long argument 
that is outside the integer range no longer raises OverflowError, but
returns a long object instead.

This fixes SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/635115

8ddc176e2e Improve DictMixin. 
Replaced docstring with comments.  Prevents subclass contamination.
Added the missing __cmp__() method and a test for __cmp__().
Used try/except style in preference to has_key() followed by a look-up.
Used iteritem() where possible to save creating a long key list and
   to save redundant lookups.
Expanded .update() to look for the most helpful methods first and gradually
   work down to a mininum expected interface.
Expanded documentation to be more clear on how to use the class.

e61f365b0b Document the available command line flags for bdist_wininst, which are 
avaliable in the Python 2.2 branch.

I've left out some flags which are more thought for debugging, if
someone needs them, he can always look at the output of --help.

I'm sure Fred will make some adjustments, so I'll only mark this as a
2.2 bugfix candidate.

There are more options available in the current CVS bdist_wininst,
I will document them after this is in.

36343f63fe Correct typo: the option is 'formats' not 'format'. 2002-11-15 19:20:56 +00:00

49b33fa4cb Squash an enormous number of warnings reported when adding "use 
warnings;" to this, and keep the "use" statement this time.

Fix an obscure bug that caused weird index entries to be generated in
a few cases, and a minor problem with horizontal alignmetn of the last
column of 5-column tables.

[I'd report a SF bug #, but I can't get to that right now.]

b9099c3df4 SF patch 637176: list.sort crasher 
Armin Rigo's Draconian but effective fix for

SF bug 453523: list.sort crasher

slightly fiddled to catch more cases of list mutation.  The dreaded
internal "immutable list type" is gone!  OTOH, if you look at a list
*while* it's being sorted now, it will appear to be empty.  Better
than a core dump.
