* Set but unused variable in Parser/pgen.c in non-debug builds. Patch by
Christian Heimes.
* Unused static function in Modules/readline.c. Patch by Georg Brandl.
* main_window unused in Modules/tkappinit.c. Patch by Gregory P. Smith.
* Dead assignment in Modules/_ctypes/cfield.c. Extracted from patch by Brett
Cannon.
* Expression result unused in PyObject_INIT macro expansions. Based on
patches by Christian Heimes.
* Load expat_config.h and therefore pyconfig.h before C stdlib headers are

in Object/ are named ``free_list``, the counter ``numfree`` and the upper

The chances should make it easier to adjust Python for platforms with

were failing due to inappropriate clipping of numbers larger than 2**31
with new-style classes. (typeobject.c) In reviewing the code for classic
classes, there were 2 problems. Any negative value return could be returned.
Always return -1 if there was an error. Also make the checks similar
with the new-style classes. I believe this is correct for 32 and 64 bit
boxes, including Windows64.
Add a test of classic classes too.
I modified this patch some by fixing style, some error checking, and adding
XXX comments. This patch requires review and some changes are to be expected.
I'm checking in now to get the greatest possible review and establish a
baseline for moving forward. I don't want this to hold up release if possible.
