for systems that are missing those declarations from system include files.
Start by moving a pointy-haired ones from their previous locations to the
new section.
(The gethostname() one, for instance, breaks on several systems, because
some define it as (char *, size_t) and some as (char *, int).)
I purposely decided not to include the summary of used #defines like Tim did
in the first section of pyport.h. In my opinion, the number of #defines
likedly to be used by this section would make such an overview unwieldy. I
would suggest documenting the non-obvious ones, though.
and a couple of functions that were missed in the previous batches. Not
terribly tested, but very carefully scrutinized, three times.
All these were found by the little findkrc.py that I posted to python-dev,
which means there might be more lurking. Cases such as this:
long
func(a, b)
long a;
long b; /* flagword */
{
and other cases where the last ; in the argument list isn't followed by a
newline and an opening curly bracket. Regexps to catch all are welcome, of
course ;)
This patch fixes possible overflows in the socket module for 64-bit
platforms (mainly Win64). The changes are:
- abstract the socket type to SOCKET_T (this is SOCKET on Windows, int
on Un*x), this is necessary because sizeof(SOCKET) > sizeof(int) on
Win64
- use INVALID_SOCKET on Win32/64 for an error return value for
accept()
- ensure no overflow of the socket variable for: (1) a PyObject return
value (use PyLong_FromLongLong if necessary); and (2) printf
formatting in repr().
Closes SourceForge patch #100516.

(This is not exactly what Vladimir posted to the patches list; I've
made a few changes, and Vladimir sent me a fix in private email for a
problem that only occurs in debug mode. I'm also holding back on his
change to main.c, which seems unnecessary to me.)
socklen_t (unsigned int) for most size parameters. Apparently this is
part of the UNIX 98 standard.
[GvR: the changes to configure.in etc. that I just checked in make
sure that socklen_t is defined everywhere, so I deleted the little
part of Jack's mod to define socklen_t if not in GUSI2. I suppose I
will have to add it to the Windows config.h in a minute.]
Windows), soclose (on OS2), or to close (everywhere else).
Hopefully this fixes a new compilation error that I suddenly get on
Windows because the macro definition for close -> closesocket
apparently was done before including io.h, which contains a prototype
for close. (No idea why this wasn't an error before.)
