abba5c067d Explain that most floats are actually integers. This is a common confusion
for people using floor(), ceil() and modf().

d6ef19309d SF bugs 996748: os.environ documentation should indicate unreliability
Clarifed that os.environ is captured once; emphasized that it's better
to assign to os.environ than to call putenv() directly (the putenv()
docs said so, but the environ docs didn't).

66bb6e661c SF bug 996392: math and cmath docs don't specify radians
Major rewrite of the math module docs.  Slapped in "radians" where
appropriate; grouped the functions into reasonable categories; supplied
many more words to address common confusions about some of the subtler
issues.

6fa2474b20 Make the distutils version number the same as the python version. It
must be literally contained here, because it is still possible to
install this distutils in older Python versions.

5ae638c78e Remove copyright notices from gencodec.py output.
The script was originally used to create the initial set of
codecs (and these were (c) CNRI). While the script itself still
is (c) CNRI, the output certainly isn't anymore.

7bd33c5e22 This change implements the following gettext features, as
discussed recently in python-dev:

In _locale module:

- bind_textdomain_codeset() binding

In gettext module:

- bind_textdomain_codeset() function
- lgettext(), lngettext(), ldgettext(), ldngettext(),
  which return translated strings encoded in
  preferred system encoding, if
  bind_textdomain_codeset() was not used.
- Added equivalent functionality in translate()
  function and catalog classes.

Every change was also documented.

5980ff2d92 SF bug 994255: Py_RETURN_NONE causes too much warnings
Rewrote Py_RETURN_{NONE, TRUE, FALSE} to expand to comma expressions
rather than "do {} while(0)" thingies.  The OP complained because he
likes using MS /W4 sometimes, and then all his uses of these things
generate nuisance warnings about testing a constant expression (in
the "while(0)" part).  Comma expressions don't have this problem
(although it's a lucky accident that comma expressions suffice for these
macros!).

21429932e4 Thread.__delete: Discussion of internal obscurities belongs in comments
rather than in docstrings.  Rewrote so that _active_limbo_lock is released
no matter what happens (it could have been left locked if _sys got None'd
out).  Use "in" in preference to has_key() for dict lookup.  Don't bother
looking for 'dummy_threading' in sys.modules unless KeyError is raised.
Since the heart of the method is the del, do that in only one place.

8b3d92a977 Fix bug where a KeyError was raised if -O was being used for the interpreter
and Thread.__delete() was called after a Thread instance was created.  Problem
resulted from a currentThread() call in an 'assert' statement being optimized
out and dummy_thread.get_ident() always returning -1 and thus overwriting the
entry for the _MainThread() instance created in 'threading' at import time.

Closes bug #993394.

the first part works now.
