The minidom.Node class has a debug attribute which, when its _debug
flag is true, is set to a StringIO object that silently collects all
debug messages. This is triggered by the Node._debug=1 statement at
the top of test_minidom.py. After the tests, we better delete that
StringIO object to avoid wasting memory. We also reset the _debug
flag. (Note that this is an undetectable memory leak, and the memory
doesn't get collected by the cycle-gc either, because it's all
reachable -- it's just useless.)

Remove memory leaks of strings/Unicode objects passed into the character
data and default handlers -- a new reference was being passed to
Py_BuildValue() for the "O" format character; using "N" plugs the leak.
Fixed two other (minor) leaks that occurred on various error conditions.
Removed uses of the UNLESS macro, which makes code hard to read, and is
Evil.

Derived from Martin's SF patch 110609: support unbounded ints in %d,i,u,x,X,o formats.
Note a curious extension to the std C rules: x, X and o formatting can never produce
a sign character in C, so the '+' and ' ' flags are meaningless for them. But
unbounded ints *can* produce a sign character under these conversions (no fixed-
width bitstring is wide enough to hold all negative values in 2's-comp form). So
these flags become meaningful in Python when formatting a Python long which is too
big to fit in a C long. This required shuffling around existing code, which hacked
x and X conversions to death when both the '#' and '0' flags were specified: the
hacks weren't strong enough to deal with the simultaneous possibility of the ' ' or
'+' flags too, since signs were always meaningless before for x and X conversions.
Isomorphic shuffling was required in unicodeobject.c.
Also added dozens of non-trivial new unbounded-int test cases to test_format.py.

.use_latex(): Make this a little smarter so that it only runs pdflatex

*Very* belated application of Thomas Heller's patch to handle
resource files. The gist of the patch is to treat ".rc" and ".mc"
files as source files; ".mc" files are compiled to ".rc" and then
".res", and ".rc" files are compiled to ".res". Wish I knew what
all these things stood for...

Treat trailing colon in os.path.join("a:", "b") same way for DOS as in
recent changes to ntpath.py and posixmodule.c. Thanks to Guido for
pointing out the inconsistency!
This patch adds a new Python C API called PyString_AsStringAndSize()
which implements the automatic conversion from Unicode to a string
object using the default encoding.
The new API is then put to use to have eval() and exec accept
Unicode objects as code parameter. This closes bugs #110924
and #113890.
As side-effect, the traditional C APIs PyString_Size() and
PyString_AsString() will also accept Unicode objects as
parameters.
The cause was that the replace code necessarily used a PCRE internal
function to to template expansion.
The fix changes the code to use an SRE internal if SRE is used, and a
PCRE internal if SRE is used; in a way that should work with 1.5.2.
The solution can be sped up tremendously under the assumption that the
choice between sre and pre is not changed during the execution of the
program; especially replace-all will be slow.

Obscure marshal fixes:
When reading a short, sign-extend on platforms where shorts are
bigger than 16 bits.
When reading a long, repair the unportable sign extension that was

sign-extends).
Patch #101121, by Ka-Ping Yee: cosmetic cleanup of cgi.py, using my

ignores them at the moment.)
Ping improves a few doc strings and fixes style violations like foo ( bar ).
An addition of my own: rearrange the printing of various items in
test() so that the (long) environment comes at the end. This avoids
having to scroll if you want to see the current directory or command

Make better use of GNU Pth -- patch by Andy Dustman.
I can't test this, so I'm just checking it in with blind faith in Andy.
I've tested that it doesn't broeak a non-Pth build on Linux.
Changes include:
- There's a --with-pth configure option.
- Instead of _GNU_PTH, we test for HAVE_PTH.
- Better signal handling.
- (The config.h.in file is regenerated in a slightly different order.)

Do not close socket when a Content-Length is 0. This make the
interface consistent: The client is responsible for closing the
socket, regardless of the amount of data received.
PyObject_SetAttr() and PyObject_GetAttr() now also accept Unicode
objects for the attribute name. Unicode objects are converted to
a string using the default encoding before trying the lookup.
Note that previously it was allowed to pass arbitrary objects as
attribute name in case the tp_getattro/setattro slots were defined.
This patch fixes this by applying an explicit string check first:
all uses of these slots expect string objects and do not check
for the type resulting in a core dump. The tp_getattro/setattro
are still useful as optimization for lookups using interned
string objects though.

sys.setdefaultencoding() should only be called in case the standard
default encoding ("ascii") is changed. This safes quite a few cycles
during startup since the first call to .setdefaultencoding() will
initialize the codec registry and the encodings package.

Fix for SF bug 110688: Instance deallocation neglected to account for
that Py_INCREF boosts global _Py_RefTotal when Py_REF_DEBUG is defined

There are, IMO, way too many preprocessor gimmicks in use for refcount
debugging (at least 3 distinct true/false symbols, but not all 8 combos
are supported by the code, etc etc), and no coherent documentation of
this stuff -- 'twas too painful to track this one down.
Added 'expand_makefile_vars()' to (duh) expand make-style variables

Pulled the regexes in 'parse_makefile()' out -- they're now globals,
as 'expand_makefile_vars()' needs (two of) them.
Cosmetic tweaks to 'parse_makefile()'.
Added 'read_setup_file()' to read old-style Setup files. Could make life

Rene Liebscher: if we have to run the same sub-command multiple times
