* posixmodule.c: move extern function declarations to top
* listobject.c: cmp() arguments must be void* if __STDC__
* Makefile, allobjects.h, panelmodule.c, modsupport.c: get rid of
strdup() -- it is a portability risk
* Makefile: enclosed ranlib command in parentheses for Sequent Make
which aborts if the command is not found even if '-' is present
* timemodule.c: time() returns a floating point number, in microsecond
precision if BSD_TIME is defined.
* flmodule.c: added {do,check}_only_forms to fl's list of functions;
and don't print a message when an unknown object is returned.
* pythonrun.c: catch SIGHUP and SIGTERM to do essential cleanup.
* Made jpegmodule.c smaller by using getargs() and mkvalue() consistently.
* Increased parser stack size to 500 in parser.h.
* Implemented custom allocation of stack frames to frameobject.c and
added dynamic stack overflow checks (value stack only) to ceval.c.
(There seems to be a bug left: sometimes stack traces don't make sense.)
sys.stderr or sys.stdin, and to work with any object as long as it has
a write() (respectively readline()) methods. Some functions that took
a FILE* argument now take an object* argument.
* flmodule.c: added some missing functions; changed readonly flags of
some data members based upon FORMS documentation.
* listobject.c: fixed int/long arg lint bug (bites PC compilers).
* several: removed redundant print methods (repr is good enough).
* posixmodule.c: added (still experimental) process group functions.
calls the repr function. When the refcount is bad, don't print
the object at all (chances of crashes).
Changes to checking and printing of references: the consistency
check is somewhat faster; don't print strings referenced once
(most occur in function's name lists).
argument to malloc() (size_t or unsigned int)
* listobject.c: check for overflow of the size of the object,
so things like range(0x7fffffff) will raise MemoryError instead
of calling malloc() with -4 (and then crashing -- malloc's fault)
coercion is now completely generic.
* ceval.c: for instances, don't coerce for + and *; * reverses
arguments if left one is non-instance numeric and right one sequence.
* socketmodule.c: get rid of makepair(); fix makesocketaddr to fix
broken recvfrom()
* socketmodule: get rid of getStrarg()
* ceval.h: move eval_code() to new file eval.h, so compile.h is no
longer needed.
* ceval.c: move thread comments to ceval.h; always make save/restore
thread functions available (for dynloaded modules)
* cdmodule.c, listobject.c: don't include compile.h
* flmodule.c: include ceval.h
* import.c: include eval.h instead of ceval.h
* cgen.py: add forground(); noport(); winopen(""); to initgl().
* bltinmodule.c, socketmodule.c, fileobject.c, posixmodule.c,
selectmodule.c:
adapt to threads (add BGN/END SAVE macros)
* stdwinmodule.c: adapt to threads and use a special stdwin lock.
* pythonmain.c: don't include getpythonpath().
* pythonrun.c: use BGN/END SAVE instead of direct calls; also more
BGN/END SAVE calls etc.
* thread.c: bigger stack size for sun; change exit() to _exit()
* threadmodule.c: use BGN/END SAVE macros where possible
* timemodule.c: adapt better to threads; use BGN/END SAVE; add
longsleep internal function if BSD_TIME; cosmetics
* split pythonmain.c in two: most stuff goes to pythonrun.c, in the library.
* new optional built-in threadmodule.c, build upon Sjoerd's thread.{c,h}.
* new module from Sjoerd: mmmodule.c (dynamically loaded).
* new module from Sjoerd: sv (svgen.py, svmodule.c.proto).
* new files thread.{c,h} (from Sjoerd).
* new xxmodule.c (example only).
* myselect.h: bzero -> memset
* select.c: bzero -> memset; removed global variable
arguments crashed in INCREF() calls which should be XINCREF() calls.
timemodule.c: fix for SEQUENT port (sys/select, struct timezone) by
Jaap Vermeulen
xxobject.c: include modsupport.h
must (pretend to) support all operations except assignments;
if you don't want to support an operation you have to provide
a dummy function that raises an exception...
