Add *,**,@ to index, as suggested by
http://farmdev.com/thoughts/24/what-does-the-def-star-variable-or-def-asterisk-parameter-syntax-do-in-python-/
The right entry type to use isn't clear; operator seems wrong, because *,**,@
aren't being used in expressions here. I put them as 'statement'; 'syntax'
might be better.
Re-implement the 'warnings' module in C. This allows for usage of the
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.

Applied patch #2617 from Frank Wierzbicki wit some extras from me
-J and -X are now reserved for Jython and non-standard arguments (e.g. IronPython). I've added some extra comments to make sure the reservation don't get missed in the future.
Remove the test file before writing it in case there is no write permission.
This might help fix some of the failures on Windows box(es). It doesn't hurt
either way and ensure the tests are a little more self contained (ie have
less assumptions).
Add min() and max() to the list of special contexts that don't require adding list() calls around dict methods.

Fix for http://bugs.python.org/issue2596
This extends fix_xrange to know about the (mostly) same special contexts as fix_dict (where a special context is something that is guaranteed to fully consume the iterable), adding list() calls where appropriate. It also special-cases "x in range(y)".

- Issue #2550: The approach used by client/server code for obtaining ports
to listen on in network-oriented tests has been refined in an effort to
facilitate running multiple instances of the entire regression test suite
in parallel without issue. test_support.bind_port() has been fixed such
that it will always return a unique port -- which wasn't always the case
with the previous implementation, especially if socket options had been
set that affected address reuse (i.e. SO_REUSEADDR, SO_REUSEPORT). The
new implementation of bind_port() will actually raise an exception if it
is passed an AF_INET/SOCK_STREAM socket with either the SO_REUSEADDR or
SO_REUSEPORT socket option set. Furthermore, if available, bind_port()
will set the SO_EXCLUSIVEADDRUSE option on the socket it's been passed.
This currently only applies to Windows. This option prevents any other
sockets from binding to the host/port we've bound to, thus removing the
possibility of the 'non-deterministic' behaviour, as Microsoft puts it,
that occurs when a second SOCK_STREAM socket binds and accepts to a
host/port that's already been bound by another socket. The optional
preferred port parameter to bind_port() has been removed. Under no
circumstances should tests be hard coding ports!
test_support.find_unused_port() has also been introduced, which will pass
a temporary socket object to bind_port() in order to obtain an unused port.
The temporary socket object is then closed and deleted, and the port is
returned. This method should only be used for obtaining an unused port
in order to pass to an external program (i.e. the -accept [port] argument
to openssl's s_server mode) or as a parameter to a server-oriented class
that doesn't give you direct access to the underlying socket used.
Finally, test_support.HOST has been introduced, which should be used for
the host argument of any relevant socket calls (i.e. bind and connect).
The following tests were updated to following the new conventions:
test_socket, test_smtplib, test_asyncore, test_ssl, test_httplib,
test_poplib, test_ftplib, test_telnetlib, test_socketserver,
test_asynchat and test_socket_ssl.
It is now possible for multiple instances of the regression test suite to
run in parallel without issue.
Issue 2408: remove the _types module
It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
when they can easily be obtained with python code.
These expressions even work with Jython.
I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
at least this change makes it simpler.
Use the new PyFile_IncUseCount & PyFile_DecUseCount calls appropriatly
within the standard library. These modules use PyFile_AsFile and later
release the GIL while operating on the previously returned FILE*.
Make file objects as thread safe as the underlying libc FILE* implementation.
close() will now raise an IOError if any operations on the file object
are currently in progress in other threads.
Most code was written by Antoine Pitrou (pitrou). Additional testing,
documentation and test suite cleanup done by me (gregory.p.smith).
Fixes issue 815646 and 595601 (as well as many other bugs and
references to this problem dating back to the dawn of Python).
Add enough debugging information to diagnose failures where the
HandlerBException is ignored, and fix one such problem, where it was thrown
during the __del__ method of the previous Popen object.
We may want to find a better way of printing verbose information so it's not
spammy when the test passes.

Fix test_distutils to not fail when running 'make test' from a Python build
directory that is not the source directory (ie, one created using
'/path/to/source/configure'.) Leaves this test very slightly degraded in
that particular case, compared to the build-in-sourcedir case, but that case
isn't a particularly strong test either: neither test the actual path that
will be used after installing. There isn't a particularly good way to test
this, and a poor test beats a failing test.
Prevent test_sqlite from hanging on older versions of sqlite.
The problem is that when trying to do the second insert, sqlite seems to sleep
