[ 1005248 ] new.code() not cleanly checking its arguments
using the result of new.code() can still destroy the sun, but merely
calling the function shouldn't any more.
I also rewrote the existing tests of new.code() to use vastly less
un-bogus arguments, and added tests for the previous insane behaviours.
The preceding case statement was missing a terminating "break" stmt,
so fell into the new code by mistake. This caused uncaught out-of-bounds
accesses to the "names" tuple, leading to a variety of insane behaviors.

The documentation portion of the patch is being re-worked and will be
checked-in soon. Likewise, PEP 289 will be updated to reflect Guido's
rationale for the design decisions on binding behavior (as described in
in his patch comments and in discussions on python-dev).
The test file, test_genexps.py, is written in doctest format and is
meant to exercise all aspects of the the patch. Further additions are
welcome from everyone. Please stress test this new feature as much as
possible before the alpha release.

This addresses most of the remaining semantic changes promised by
PEP 237, except for repr() of a long, which still shows the trailing
'L'. The PEP appears to promise warnings for operations that
changed semantics compared to Python 2.3, but this is not
implemented; we've suffered through enough warnings related to
hex/oct literals and I think it's best to be silent now.
Fixes for three related bugs, including errors that caused a script to
be ignored without printing an error message. The key problem was a bad
interaction between syntax warnings and syntax errors. If an
exception was already set when a warning was issued, the warning could
clobber the exception.
The PyErr_Occurred() check in issue_warning() isn't entirely
satisfying (the caller should know whether there was already an
error), but a better solution isn't immediately obvious.
Bug fix candidate.
