With help from Martin v. Loewis, clarification is added for the
semantics of header chunks using byte and Unicode strings.
Specifically,
append(): When the given string is a byte string, charset (whether
specified explicitly in the argument list or implicitly via the
constructor default) is the encoding of the byte string, and a
UnicodeError will be raised if the string cannot be decoded with that
charset. If s is a Unicode string, then charset is a hint specifying
the character set of the characters in the string. In this case, when
producing an RFC 2822 compliant header using RFC 2047 rules, the
Unicode string will be encoded using the following charsets in order:
us-ascii, the charset hint, utf-8.
__init__(): Use the global USASCII Charset instance when the charset
argument is None. Also, clarification in the docstring.

The ansi_x3.4_1968 encoding is an alias for ascii, but isn't known in
Python 2.1.3. However it's required by the email tests suite, so poke
it into the encodings aliases if it's missing. The is apparently the
approved API for doing so.
Now we can remove the hexversion shortcircuits in the test suite.

Make the tests pass under Python 2.1 but only by cheating. Python 2.1
doesn't know about the ansi-x3.4-1968 charset so skip two tests that
rely on that (msg_32.txt and msg_33.txt).

Added a feature suggested by Martin v Loewis, where a new header
encoding flag SHORTEST means to return the shortest encoding between
base64 and qp. This is used for the header_enc for utf-8. SHORTEST
isn't legal for body_enc.
Also some code cleanup:
- use True/False everywhere
- use == instead of `is' in a few places
- added _unicode() and make consistent the "is unicode" checks
- update docstrings

Fixing some RFC 2231 related issues as reported in the Spambayes

get_param(), get_params(): Document that these methods may return
parameter values that are either strings, or 3-tuples in the case of
RFC 2231 encoded parameters. The application should be prepared to
deal with such return values.
get_boundary(): Be prepared to deal with RFC 2231 encoded boundary
parameters. It makes little sense to have boundaries that are
anything but ascii, so if we get back a 3-tuple from get_param() we
will decode it into ascii and let any failures percolate up.
get_content_charset(): New method which treats the charset parameter
just like the boundary parameter in get_boundary(). Note that
"get_charset()" was already taken to return the default Charset

__version__: Bump to 2.4
Move the imports of Parser and Message inside the
message_from_string() and message_from_file() functions. This way
just "import email" won't suck in most of the submodules of the
package.
Note: this will break code that relied on "import email" giving you a
bunch of the submodules, but that was never documented and should not
have been relied on.

SF bug 613233: test_threadedtempfile hangs
A possibility to deadlock (on the hidden import lock) was created here
in 2.3, seemingly when tempfile.py started to call functions in
random.py. The cure is "the usual": don't spawn threads as a side
effect of importing, when the spawned threads themselves do imports
(directly or indirectly), and the code that spawned the threads is
waiting for the threads to finish (they can't finish, because they're
waiting for the import lock the spawner still holds). Worming around
this is why the "test_main" mechanism was introduced in regrest, so
it's a straightforward fix.
NOT a bugfix candidate; the problem was introduced in 2.3.

Be more careful with the type of the xmlhandlersetter; it takes an

This generated warnings when compiled with Expat 1.95.5, which no

This adds new methods heading(), setheading(), position(),
window_width(), window_height(), setx(), and sety(), to make this more
functionality-compatible with Logo turtle graphics (Attila's last
words, not mine :-). I had to fix the sety() code which was broken in
Attila's patch.
I'm not adopting the functionality change that Attila claimed was a
bugfix (no output without tracing), because I disagree that it's a
bug.
ReST-ification of the NEWS file. While the total number of changes are
fairly large, most are caused by reformatting section and subsection
headings. The changes fall into the following categories:
* reformatted section and subsection headers.
* escaped isolated asterisks which would be interpreted as starting bold
or italic text (e.g. "void (*)(PyObject \*)").
* quoted stuff that looks like internal references but isn't
(e.g. ``PyCmp_``).
* changed visually balanced quotes to just use apostrophes
(e.g. "'string'" instead of "`string'").
* introduced and indenting multiline chunks of code.
