c9a5f343bc The addition of rint() (by Peter Schneider-Kamp; I forgot to mention
that before) in the previous patch has one problem; rint() is not in
the C math library on all platforms (e.g. not for VC++).  Make it
conditional on HAVE_RINT.

The intent is that this diff adds a link to the rfc822 module doc and
an index reference to this module under the rfc822 heading.

Fred, based on a suggestion from Grant Griffin <grant.griffin@honeywell.com>:
Added link to the MIME FAQ, so people can more easily get more
information about the subject of the module.

d67ddbbec1 Eric Raymond:
(1) Added and documented the capability for shlex to handle
lexical-level inclusion and a stack of input sources.  Also, the input
stream member is now documented, and the constructor takes an optional
source-filename.  The class provides facilities to generate error
messages that track file and line number.

(2) Add a convenience function to generate C-compiler style error
leaders.

93a8eacde5 Document the new additional signature for utime(). In addition to the
previous functionality utime(path, (atime, mtime)), now allowed is
utime(path, None) which sets the file's times to the current time.

40ee7acb95 \file and \filenq should not be used in section titles; they are not
sufficiently robust to survive the creation of bookmarks in the PDF
format.
