68db730324 Adding what's done of the documentation for the new profiling &
tracing interface.  Incomplete, but better to check it in since I've
been including it in my updates.

1385a57b85 Bump the release number.
Make the syntax of compound command lines more portable (nmake, CygWin).
These changes are an adaptation of SF patch #429611.

Use the new tools/rewrite.py instead of grep/date/sed to transform
html/index.html.in into html/index.html; this is required for portability.

16649a803b Make the syntax for compound command lines more portable (nmake, CygWin).
This is probably not sufficient by itself for the info generation, and is
being done mostly to keep the style consistent with additional patches
that will be applied to Doc/Makefile.

3cae66bdbc Script to re-write @FOO@-style marks with values, initializing the
replacement for @DATE@ from a TeX file containing a \date{...} mark
(such as texinputs/boilerplate.tex).

This will be used to re-write the html/index.html.in file instead of
a combination of grep, date, and sed -- this is more portable to non-Unix
platforms.

This solves part of the problem reported in SF patch #429611, but does
not use the suggested patch.

aebbca3b61 Job.__init__(): Only create the builddir directory if it will be used (by
building the HTML or text documentation).  There is no need to create
    it for other formats.

Job.build_html():  The builddir parameter is always passed in, so it need
    not be optional.

95400a28e4 Updated the documentation in several respects:
- This module, despite its name, now should conform to RFC 2822, the
  update to RFC 822.

- This module doesn't just represent "email headers", but entire email
  messages.

- Added documentation for other useful public functions such as
  quote(), unquote(), praseaddr(), and dump_address_pair().

bf5a774bcb On int/long to the negative int/long power, let float handle it
instead of raising an error.  This was one of the two issues that the
VPython folks were particularly problematic for their students.  (The
other one was integer division...)  This implements (my) SF patch
#440487.

e304bb9eec First version of xmlrpclib docs. Probably has markup errors; is not complete,
could probably stand to have some of the internal things like Marshaller
documented.  But I think it does a decent job on the entry points and
externally visible things.

Fred and Fredrik, do your stuff!  You both need to proof this.
