6e887bb05f SF bug #729096: getopt online documentation example improvement 
A newbie found it difficult to translate the exampe into a
case that used only short options or long options but not both.
He tried to shorten the tuple search but forgot the trailing comma,
The appropriate pattern is an equality check.

Revised the example to point him in the right direction.

Backport candidate.

5501b5e3d7 SF bug 728097: tmpnam problems on windows 2.3b, breaks test.test_os. 
tmpnam() appears essentially useless on Windows, and it finally broke
the test for Irmen de Jong.  Read the long new comment in test_tmpnam()
for details.  Since the MS implementation is insane, it might be good
if we supplied a different implementation.

Bugfix candidate.

c4e0940042 New generator os.walk() does a bit more than os.path.walk() does, and 
seems much easier to use.  Code, docs, NEWS, and additions to test_os.py
(testing this sucker is a bitch!).

47dfa4a89a Patch by Jp Calderone: 
- The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop
  for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses.
  See SF patch #658327.

This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).

11b2306960 Enable os.fsync() for Windows, mapping it to MS's _commit() there. The 
docs here are best-guess:  the MS docs I could find weren't clear, and
some even claimed _commit() has no effect on Win32 systems (which is
easily shown to be false just by trying it).
