Fix issue #1590864, multiple threads and fork() can cause deadlocks, by
acquiring the import lock around fork() calls. This prevents other threads
from having that lock while the fork happens, and is the recommended way of
dealing with such issues. There are two other locks we care about, the GIL
and the Thread Local Storage lock. The GIL is obviously held when calling
Python functions like os.fork(), and the TLS lock is explicitly reallocated
instead, while also deleting now-orphaned TLS data.
This only fixes calls to os.fork(), not extension modules or embedding
programs calling C's fork() directly. Solving that requires a new set of API
functions, and possibly a rewrite of the Python/thread_*.c mess. Add a
warning explaining the problem to the documentation in the mean time.
This also changes behaviour a little on AIX. Before, AIX (but only AIX) was
getting the import lock reallocated, seemingly to avoid this very same
problem. This is not the right approach, because the import lock is a
re-entrant one, and reallocating would do the wrong thing when forking while
holding the import lock.
Will backport to 2.6, minus the tiny AIX behaviour change.

Issue #1766304: Optimize membership testing for ranges: 'n in range(...)'
does an O(1) check, if n is an integer. Non-integers aren't affected.
Thanks Robert Lehmann.
When range checking was added to time.strftime() a check was placed on tm_isdst
to make sure it fell within [-1, 1] just in case someone implementing
strftime() in libc was stupid enough to assume this. Turns out, though, some
OSs (e.g. zOS) are stupid enough to use values outside of this range for time
structs created by the system itself. So instead of throwing a ValueError,
tm_isdst is now normalized before being passed to strftime().
Fixes issue #6823. Thanks Robert Shapiro for diagnosing the problem and
contributing an initial patch.

Issue 6877: this patch makes it possible to link the readline extension

C libraries.
