Updates to ctypes for python 3.0 to make the tests pass.
Notable changes are:
- return bytes instead of str8
- integers in range(256) are accepted as "one char string":
libc.strchr("abcdef", 98) is now valid.
- directly use the wide-char version of the win32 function LoadLibrary.
Code that has been returning str8 becomes much more apparent thanks to this
(e.g., struct module returning str8 for all string-related formats or sqlite3
passing in str8 instances when converting objects that had a __conform__
method). One also has to watch out in C code when making a key from char *
using PyString in the C code but a str instance in Python code as that will not
longer compare equal.
Once str8 gains a constructor like the current bytes type then
test_modulefinder needs a cleanup as the fix is a little messy in that file.
Thanks goes to Thomas Lee for writing the patch for the change giving an
initial run-down of why most of the tests were failing.
Additional patch by Christian Heimes to deal more cleanly with the
FILE* vs file-descriptor issues.
I cleaned up his code a bit, and moved the lseek() call into import.c.
coefficient numbers, floats in the sign, and other details that
generated directly the wrong number in the best case, or triggered
misfunctionality in the alorithms.
Test cases added for these issues. Thanks Mark Dickinson.
- Fix bsddb.dbtables: Don't randomly corrupt newly inserted rows by
picking a rowid string with null bytes in it. Such rows could not
later be deleted, modified or individually selected. Existing
bsdTableDb databases created with such rows are out of luck.
- Use mkdtemp for the test_dbtables test database environment and
clean it up afterwards using shutil.rmtree.
NULL bytes it would cause the database all sorts of problems in the future
leading to very strange random failures and corrupt dbtables.bsdTableDb dbs.

line 447 self.db.get using txn as a non-keyword was an actual bug due to this)
it closes itself. When the stream is read in several calls to read(n),
it should behave in the same way if HTTPConnection knows where the end
of the stream is (through self.length). Added a test case for this
behaviour.
to be called a buffer). Shares code with stringobject when possible.
Adds unit tests with common code that should be usable to test the PEPs
mutable buffer() and immutable bytes() types.

This should make the tests more robust at the expense of allowing
tests to be sloppier by not requiring them to cleanup after themselves.
(It will legitamitely help when running two test suites simultaneously
or if another process is already using one of the predefined ports.)
Also simplifies (slightLy) the exception handling elsewhere.

was useless due to inverted logic. Also adds a test case for RECNO dbs
to test_dbshelve.
