sporadic crashes in multi-thread programs when several long deallocator
chains ran concurrently and involved subclasses of built-in container
types.
Note that the trashcan functions are part of the stable ABI, therefore
they have to be kept around for binary compatibility of extensions.
sporadic crashes in multi-thread programs when several long deallocator
chains ran concurrently and involved subclasses of built-in container
types.
Because of this change, a couple extension modules compiled for 3.2.4
(those which use the trashcan mechanism, despite it being undocumented)
will not be loadable by 3.2.3 and earlier. However, extension modules
compiled for 3.2.3 and earlier will be loadable by 3.2.4.
This eliminates a ResourceWarning, since before webbrowser was
explicitly opening os.devnull and then leaving it open. Tests
to follow.

This shows up as a bug in 3.3 because the definition for Chrome
produces such an empty string. Tests will follow.

This showed up as a bug in 3.3 because the definition for Chrome
produced such an empty string. This fix is tested in 3.3+;
backporting the new test suite is more trouble than it is worth.
Before, the type function was called twice in the case where the default
was specified and the argument was given as well. This was especially
problematic for the FileType type, as a default file would always be
opened, even if a file argument was specified on the command line.

character for most keys, and an integer for special keys, instead of always
returning an integer. So it is now possible to distinguish special keys like
keypad keys.
fromlist of __import__ propagate.
The problem previously was that if something listed in fromlist didn't
exist then that's okay. The fix for that was too broad in terms of
catching ImportError.
The trick with the solution to this issue is that the proper
refactoring of import thanks to importlib doesn't allow for a way to
distinguish (portably) between an ImportError because finders couldn't
find a loader, or a loader raised the exception. In Python 3.4 the
hope is to introduce a new exception (e.g. ModuleNotFound) to make it
clean to differentiate why ImportError was raised.
