exact maximum size someone guesses is needed. In this case, if
we're really worried about extreme integers, then "cp%d" can
actually need 14 bytes (2 for "cp" + 1 for \0 at the end +
11 for -(2**31-1)). So reserve 128 bytes instead -- nothing is
actually saved by making a stack-local buffer tiny.
46640 Patch #1454481: Make thread stack size runtime tunable.
46647 Markup fix
The first is causing many buildbots to fail test runs, and there
are multiple causes with seemingly no immediate prospects for
repairing them. See python-dev discussion.
Note that a branch can (and should) be created for resolving these
problems, like
svn copy svn+ssh://svn.python.org/python/trunk -r46640 svn+ssh://svn.python.org/python/branches/NEW_BRANCH
followed by merging rev 46647 to the new branch.
set_exc_info(), reset_exc_info(): By exploiting the
likely (who knows?) invariant that when an exception's
`type` is NULL, its `value` and `traceback` are also NULL,
save some cycles in heavily-executed code.
This is a "a kronar saved is a kronar earned" patch: the
speedup isn't reliably measurable, but it obviously does
reduce the operation count in the normal (no exception
raised) path through PyEval_EvalFrameEx().
The tim-exc_sanity branch tries to push this harder, but
is still blowing up (at least in part due to pre-existing
subtle bugs that appear to have no other visible
consequences!).
Not a bugfix candidate.
invalid file paths for the built-in import machinery which leads to
fewer open calls on startup.
Also fix issue with PEP 302 style import hooks which lead to more open()
calls than necessary.
