Issue #7376: When called with no arguments doctest was running a
self-test. Because of a change to the way tracebacks are printed,
this self-test was failing. The test is run (and passes) during normal
regression testing. So instead of running the failing self-test this
patch makes doctest emit a usage message. This is better behavior anyway
since passing in arguments is the real reason to run doctest as a command.
Bug discovery and initial patch by Florent Xicluna.

Issue #1680159: unicode coercion during an 'in' operation was masking
any errors that might occur during coercion of the left operand and
turning them into a TypeError with a message text that was confusing in
the given context. This patch lets any errors through, as was already
done during coercion of the right hand side.

Issue #7357: No longer suppress fatal extraction errors by
default.
TarFile's errorlevel argument controls how errors are
handled that occur during extraction. There are three
possible levels 0, 1 and 2. If errorlevel is set to 1 or 2
fatal errors (e.g. a full filesystem) are raised as
exceptions. If it is set to 0, which is the default value,
extraction errors are suppressed, and error messages are
written to the debug log instead. But, if the debug log is
not activated, which is the default as well, all these
errors go unnoticed.
The original intention was to imitate GNU tar which tries
to extract as many members as possible instead of stopping
on the first error. It turns out that this is no good
default behaviour for a tar library. This patch simply
changes the default value for the errorlevel argument from
0 to 1, so that fatal extraction errors are raised as
EnvironmentError exceptions.

Replace the size check for PyMem_MALLOC and PyMem_REALLOC with an almost
equivalent[*] check that doesn't produce compiler warnings about a 'x < 0'
check on an unsigned type.
[*] it's equivalent for inputs of type size_t or Py_ssize_t, or any smaller
unsigned or signed integer type.

Fix an issue with the detection of a non-existing SDK
on OSX. Without this patch it wasn't possible after all
to compile extensions on OSX 10.6 with the binary
installer unless the user had installed the (non-default)
10.4u SDK.
