5a2ca9328d Checking in a bunch of spawn functions. These are only defined if we
have fork and execv (and friends) but not spawnv.  They operate
exactly like the spawn functions on Windows.  A limited set of needed
constants is also defined (P_WAIT, P_NOWAIT etc.).

Also add getenv() as a familiar alias for environ.get().

2d72687006 New module by Moshe Zadka (submitted on Sept. 25). This unifies the
functionality of cmp.py and cmpcache.py, which are hereby declared
obsolescent.

4e20de59dd Patch by Michael Hudson: when the object of attribute expansion is a
class instance, include the class attributes in the list of possible
expansions.

request handling into separate parse_request() and handle_request()
methods.

e1ada50559 Don't assume GNU tar -- generate tar file and compress in separate steps.
Now supports the full range of intended formats (tar, ztar, gztar, zip).
"-f" no longer a short option for "--formats" -- conflicts with new
  global option "--force"!

bda10c81d0 In helo() and ehlo(), Don't fail when gethostbyaddr() fails -- just
keep whatever gethostname() returns.  After a suggestion by Doug Wyatt.

more than one window argument.

910d9a0634 Test output.
(XXX perhaps a bit too verbose; in particular it is sensitive to
all the doc strings.)

fdecda0123 Rewritten -- this now tests the binascii *except* for the binhex
module, which is tested by test_binhex.py.

7b8f1abfca This test really only tests the binhex module.
Renamed it and adapted a comment and an error message.

88d23309e9 print a warning if the password will be echoed.
At import time, getpass will be bound to the appropriate
platform-specific function.  If the platform's echo-disabler is not
available, default_getpass, which prints the warning, will be used

dcb8583c18 Fix for PR#111: when using the inplace option, give the new file the
same permissions as the old file, plugging a security hole.
(Not using exactly the suggested bugfix.)

14bb71d553 os.fork raises AttributeError, not NameError, if fork() isn't
supported.  Pointed out by Moshe Zadka <moshez@math.huji.ac.il>.

40e84db0f4 Based on comments from Paul Prescod:
If os.fork() doesn't exist, raise SystemError with an explanation at
the top of the module.  Added a note to the module docstring.

08a92cb568 Jeremy writes:
I found the following patch helpful in tracking down a bug in some
code.  I had appended time, the module, instead of time.time().  Not
sure if it is generally true that printing the repr of the object is
good, but I expect that most unpicklable things will have fairly
information and concise reprs (like files or sockets or modules).
