and .keys(), .items(), .values() return dict views.
The dict views aren't fully functional yet; in particular, they can't
be compared to sets yet. but they are useful as "iterator wells".
There are still 27 failing unit tests; I expect that many of these
have fairly trivial fixes, but there are so many, I could use help.
the master should close the slave fd.
Added a test to test_pty.py that reads from the master_fd after doing
a pty.fork(); without the fix it hangs forever instead of raising an
exception. (<crossing fingers for the buildbots>)
Backport from trunk rev. 53146.
The next step of PEP 352 (for 2.6) causes raising a string exception to trigger
a TypeError. Trying to catch a string exception raises a DeprecationWarning.
References to string exceptions has been removed from the docs since they are
now just an error.
a with statement; previously, executing code containing a with statement
compiled by the compiler package crashed the interpreter.
(backport from rev. 53575)
generic so that one only has to shift certain values based on whether the week
was specified to start on Monday or Sunday. Cut out a lot of edge case code
compared to the previous version. Also broke algorithm out into its own
function (that is private to the module).
Fixes bug #1643943 (thanks Biran Nahas for the report).

Fix for #1643874: When calling SysAllocString, create a PyCObject
which will eventually call SysFreeString to free the BSTR resource.

segfault the interpreter during weakref clean up. Now any new weakrefs created
after __del__ is run are removed silently.
Fixes bug #1377858 and the weakref_in_del crasher for new-style classes.
Classic classes are still affected.
SF patch #1630975: Fix crash when replacing sys.stdout in sitecustomize
When running the interpreter in an environment that would cause it to set
stdout/stderr/stdin's encoding, having a sitecustomize that would replace
them with something other than PyFile objects would crash the interpreter.
Fix it by simply ignoring the encoding-setting for non-files.
This could do with a test, but I can think of no maintainable and portable
way to test this bug, short of adding a sitecustomize.py to the buildsystem
and have it always run with it (hmmm....)
