PyThreadState pointer instead of a (frame) PyObject pointer. This
makes much more sense. It is backward incompatible, but that's no
problem, because (a) the heaviest users are the Py_{BEGIN,END}_
ALLOW_THREADS macros here, which have been fixed too; (b) there are
very few direct users; (c) those who use it are there will probably
appreciate the change.
Also, added new functions PyEval_AcquireThread() and
PyEval_ReleaseThread() which allows the threads created by the thread
module as well threads created by others (!) to set/reset the current
thread, and at the same time acquire/release the interpreter lock.
Much saner.
int+int, int-int, int <compareop> int, and list[int].
(Unfortunately, int*int is way too much code to inline.)
Also corrected a NULL that should have been a zero.
get/set/del item). This removes a pile of duplication. There's no
abstract operator for 'not' but I removed the function call for it
anyway -- it's a little faster in-line.
by the frameobject dealloc when it is time for the locals to go. When
there's still a traceback object referencing this stack frame, we
don't want the local variables to disappear yet.
(Hmm... Shouldn't they be copied to the f_locals dictionary?)
- Use co->... instead of f->f_code->...; save an extra lookup of what
we already have in a local variable).
- Remove test for nlocals > 0 before setting fastlocals to
f->f_localsplus; 0 is a rare case and the assignment is safe even
then.
called with keyword arguments -- the keyword and value were leaked.
This affected for instance with a __call__() method.

i.e., counting opcode frequencies, or (with DXPAIRS defined) opcode
pair frequencies. Define DYNAMIC_EXECUTION_PROFILE on the command
line (for this file and for sysmodule.c) to enable.
This is safe now that both intrcheck() and signalmodule.c schedule a
sigcheck() call via Py_AddPendingCall().
This gives another 7% speedup (never run such a test twice ;-).
