b55e498f56 Issue #767645: fix os.path.supports_unicode_filenames definition
os.listdir(str) always returns unicode and it can return non-ascii filenames
even if supports_unicode_filenames is False.

5b519e0201 Issue #9632: Remove sys.setfilesystemencoding() function: use PYTHONFSENCODING
environment variable to set the filesystem encoding at Python startup.
sys.setfilesystemencoding() creates inconsistencies because it is unable to
reencode all filenames in all objects.

ba117ef7e9 #4617: Previously it was illegal to delete a name from the local
namespace if it occurs as a free variable in a nested block.  This limitation
of the compiler has been lifted, and a new opcode introduced (DELETE_DEREF).

This sample was valid in 2.6, but fails to compile in 3.x without this change::

   >>> def f():
   ...     def print_error():
   ...        print(e)
   ...     try:
   ...        something
   ...     except Exception as e:
   ...        print_error()
   ...        # implicit "del e" here


This sample has always been invalid in Python, and now works::

   >>> def outer(x):
   ...     def inner():
   ...        return x
   ...     inner()
   ...     del x

There is no need to bump the PYC magic number: the new opcode is used
for code that did not compile before.

underlying buffer (previously this was only done when deallocating the

The example still doesn't work as-is under py3k, due to incomplete
or buggy porting of the nntplib module.

6285774f06 Implement #7566 - os.path.sameopenfile for Windows.
This uses the GetFileInformationByHandle function to return a tuple of values
to identify a file, then ntpath.sameopenfile compares file tuples, which
is exposed as os.path.sameopenfile.

13b55291ac hashlib has two new constant attributes: algorithms_guaranteed and
algorithms_avaiable that respectively list the names of hash algorithms
guaranteed to exist in all Python implementations and the names of hash
algorithms available in the current process.

Renames the attribute new in 3.2a0 'algorithms' to 'algorithms_guaranteed'.

4234ad4266 Fix typos and wording in what’s new 3.2.
- The entry about shutil.copytree is just a revert of r84524 which
looks like an unfinished edition.
- The use of gender-neutral language (s/his/their/) removes the
implicit assumption that programmer == male (change agreed by Antoine).
- Other changes should be uncontroversial fixes.

I haven’t rewrapped under 80 lines to keep the diffs readable; I’ll
rewrap later.
