environment variable, to provide an opt-in way to protect against denial of
service attacks due to hash collisions within the dict and set types. Patch
by David Malcolm, based on work by Victor Stinner.
* pythoncore.vcproj: Removed doubled entries, and sorted entries a bit.
* _multiprocessing.vcproj: Converted ProjectGUID to uppercase. Otherwise,
VS8 _multiprocessing.vcproj created by vs9to8.py was modified every time
loads it in VS8 IDE.
* PyCObject_AsVoidPtr() can now open capsules. This addresses
most of the remaining backwards-compatibility concerns about
the conversion of Python 2.7 from CObjects to capsules.
* CObjects were marked Pending Deprecation.
* Documentation about this pending deprecation was added to
cobject.h.
* The capsule source files were added to the legacy PC build
processes.
Add the Python/dtoa.c file containing the main algorithms;
add corresponding include file and include in Python.h;
include license information for Python/dtoa.c;
add dtoa.c and dtoa.h to Makefile.
It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
when they can easily be obtained with python code.
These expressions even work with Jython.
I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
at least this change makes it simpler.
