Issue #8748: Fix two issues with comparisons between complex and integer
objects. (1) The comparison could incorrectly return True in some cases
(2**53+1 == complex(2**53) == 2**53), breaking transivity of equality.
(2) The comparison raised an OverflowError for large integers, leading
to unpredictable exceptions when combining integers and complex objects
in sets or dicts.

Issue #8633: Support for POSIX.1-2008 binary pax headers.
tarfile is now able to read and write pax headers with a
"hdrcharset=BINARY" record. This record was introduced in
POSIX.1-2008 as a method to store unencoded binary strings that
cannot be translated to UTF-8. In practice, this is just a workaround
that allows a tar implementation to store filenames that do not
comply with the current filesystem encoding and thus cannot be
decoded correctly.
Additionally, tarfile works around a bug in current versions of GNU
tar: undecodable filenames are stored as-is in a pax header without a
"hdrcharset" record being added. Technically, these headers are
invalid, but tarfile manages to read them correctly anyway.

subprocess.Popen.__del__ referenced global objects, which is a no-no thanks to
interpreter shutdown semantics. Same issue goes for the methods that __del__
called. Now all the methods capture the global objects it needs as default
values to private parameters (could have stuck them on the class object itself,
but since the objects have nothing directly to do with the class that seemed
wrong).
There is no test as making one that works is hard. This patch was
verified against a consistently failing test in Mercurial's test suite, though,
so it has been tested in some regard.
Closes issue #5099. Thanks to Mary Stern for the bug report and Gabriel
