  #1750076: Debugger did not step on every iteration of a while statement.

  The mapping between bytecode offsets and source lines (lnotab) did not contain
  an entry for the beginning of the loop.

  Now it does, and the lnotab can be a bit larger:
  in particular, several statements on the same line generate several entries.
  However, this does not bother the settrace function, which will trigger only
  one 'line' event.

  The lnotab seems to be exactly the same as with python2.4.

  there is no need to emit co_lnotab item when both offsets are zeros.

  Limit free list of method and builtin function objects to 256 entries each.
........
  r60616 | christian.heimes | 2008-02-06 14:33:44 +0100 (Wed, 06 Feb 2008) | 7 lines

  Unified naming convention for free lists and their limits. All free lists
  in Object/ are named ``free_list``, the counter ``numfree`` and the upper
  limit is a macro ``PyName_MAXFREELIST`` inside an #ifndef block.

  The chances should make it easier to adjust Python for platforms with
  less memory, e.g. mobile phones.
