269625f67a Revise the deprecation note for the whrandom module to be correct and a 
little more formal.

24da47708d Do not pass names of individual files to shutil.rmtree(); use os.unlink() 
for that.

6270031f4e Adjustments to the text of the UnixMailbox description. Added 
PortableUnixMailbox as a separate class as well (this also generates
the right index entry).

Move some index entries next to what they are referring to for better
"targetting".

0de88fc4b1 Change random.seed() so that it can get at the full range of possible 
internal states.  Put the old .seed() (which could only get at about
the square root of the # of possibilities) under the new name .whseed(),
for bit-level compatibility with older versions.  This occurred to me
while reviewing effbot's book (he found himself stumbling over .seed()
more than once there ...).

30dbd1429a Document the two changes to the mailbox.py module: 
- All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a
  callable used when new message instances are created by the next()
  methods.  Defaults to the rfc822.Message class.

- A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox.
  It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for
  From_ delimiter lines.  With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that
  starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really
  check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.

e360d9507a The combo of getstate/setstate/jumpahead is very powerful, but needs 
examples to flesh it out for the uninitiated.  Here they are.

29052482d1 Removed references to Python 1.5.3; that was a "tentative" number I used 
in the docs to indicate the next version before we decided on 1.6.

Adjusted winsound.Beep() description slightly as well.

d52269bfd0 Fix bugs introduced by rewrite (in particular, time-based initialization 
got broken).  Also added new method .jumpahead(N).  This finally gives us
a semi-decent answer to how Python's RNGs can be used safely and efficiently
in multithreaded programs (although it requires the user to use the new
machinery!).

d7b5e88e8e Reworked random.py so that it no longer depends on, and offers all the 
functionality of, whrandom.py.  Also closes all the "XXX" todos in
random.py.  New frequently-requested functions/methods getstate() and
setstate().  All exported functions are now bound methods of a hidden
instance.  Killed all unintended exports.  Updated the docs.
FRED:  The more I fiddle the docs, the less I understand the exact
intended use of the \var, \code, \method tags.  Please review critically.
GUIDO:  See email.  I updated NEWS as if whrandom were deprecated; I
think it should be.
