/* XXX From here until type is allocated, "return NULL" leaks bases! */
Sure looks like it to me! <wink>
When I run the leak2.py script I posted to python-dev, I only see
three reference leaks in all of test_descr. When I run
test_descr.test_main, I still see 46 leaks. This clearly demands
posting a yelp to python-dev :-)
This certainly should be applied to release23-maint, and in all
likelyhood release22-maint as well.
SF bug #782369: Massive memory leak in array module
Fixed leak caused by switching from PyList_GetItem to PySequence_GetItem.
Added missing NULL check.
Clarified code by converting an "if" to an "else if".

init_myformat(): None of the "mark" values can be empty strings, or
LaTeX2HTML feels free to remove a surrounding element that
contains no other content. Since such an element is typically a
named anchor used for hyperlinking, they should not be removed.
Unfortunatley, making sure these marks are non-empty is the most
direct way of avoiding this behavior.
Thanks to Dave Kuhlman for tracking this down; this was some excellent
detective work!

Re-introduce caching of TimeRE and compiled regexes with added thread-safety.
Also remove now unnecessary property attributes for thread safety
(no longer have lazy attributes) and code simplicity reasons.
Timezone storage has been reworked to be simpler and more flexible. All values
in LocaleTime instances are lower-cased. This is all done to simplify the
module.
The module now assumes nothing beyond the strptime function will be exposed for
general use beyond providing functionality for strptime.

SF bug 778400: IDLE hangs when selecting "Edit with IDLE".
The fix is confined to the Windows installer.
Not a bugfix candidate: the need for the new -n switch added here was
introduced by moving to the idlefork IDLE (so this change isn't needed
or helpful before 2.3).

Don't export the SPB type as "SPB", because it shadows the method SPB,
which is really important. This is a stopgap measure, as only the generated
C code is adapted. Fixes #776533.
Fixes bug of having default argument for TimeRE's __init__ that caused the
LocaleTime instance to only be created once and thus not be recreated when
the locale changed.
Remove caching of TimeRE (and thus LocaleTime) instance. Error was being
caught when executing test_strptime, test_logging, and test_time in that order
when the testing of "%c" occured. Suspect the cache was not being recreated
(the test passed when test_logging was forced to re-establish the locale).

locale-restoration code: Don't leave comparison to None implicit. For
all I know, the original locale may be '' (I don't think that's possible,
but ...), and if so we would certainly want to restore it.

Fred wasn't kidding -- there really are docs for the locale module <wink>.
Obtain the original locale in the documented way. This way actually
works for me.
Restore the original locale at the end, instead of forcing to "C".
Move the locale fiddling into the test driver instead of doing it as a
side effect of merely importing the module. I don't know why the test
is mucking with locale (and also added a comment saying so), but it
surely has no justification for doing that as an import side-effect.
Now whenever the locale-changing code executes, the locale-restoring code
will also get run.

Change the zipimport implementation to accept files containing
arbitrary bytes before the actual zip compatible archive. Zipfiles
containing comments at the end of the file are still not supported.
Add a testcase to test_zipimport, and update NEWS.
Cygwin's pthread_sigmask() implementation appears to be buggy. This
patch works around this problem by using sigprocmask() instead.
This patch is implemented in a general way so it could be used by other
platforms too. If this approach is deemed too risky, then I can work up
a patch that just hacks Python/thread_pthread.h for Cygwin.
Note that I tested this patch against 2.3c1 under Red Hat Linux 8.0 too.

And finally, I need someone to regenerate pyconfig.h.in and configure

Python.
Neal kindly regenerated pyconfig.h.in and configure for me.

Files used for the 2.3rc1+ binary installer. This one has the size problem
fixed. It also attempts to force boot-disk-only installs, but this seems to
lead to a problem that you have to deselect and reselect the installation disk.
If no-one comes up with a fix RSN I'll revert to the previous situation and
explain in the readme that you cannot install on a non-system-disk.

Windows fix: When PYTHONCASEOK is set, or for any other reason imports
are satisfied in a case-insensitive manner, the attempt to import (the
non-existent) fcntl gets satisfied by FCNTL.py instead, and the tempfile
module defines a Unix-specific _set_cloexec() function in that case. As
a result, temp files can't be created then (blows up with an AttributeError
trying to reference fcntl.fcntl). This just popped up in the spambayes
project, where there is no apparent workaround (which is why I'm pushing
this in now).
