this could cause invalid paths to be returned for AF_UNIX sockets on some
platforms (including FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE), appearantly because there is
no assurance that the address will be nul-terminated when filled in by the
kernel.
PySocketSock_recvfrom(): Use PyString_AS_STRING() to get the data pointer
of a string we create ourselves; there is no need for the extra type
check from PyString_AsString().
This closes SF bug #416573.
the right HTML file to the name about.html is needed even if the
--numeric option was not given -- some other name may have been
assigned due to some non-determinism in the algorithm use to perform
name allocation. ;-(
This closes the "About..." portion of SF bug #420216.
There is no imap module; refer to imaplib instead, since it exists.
Move the "See Also:" section in front of the sub-sections, for
consistency with other portions of the library reference.

interned when created, so the cached versions generally aren't ever
interned. With the patch, the
Py_INCREF(t);
*p = t;
Py_DECREF(s);

indirection block in PyString_InternInPlace() is never executed during a
full run of the test suite, but was executed very many times before. So
I'm trading more work when creating one-character strings for doing less
work later. Note that the "more work" here can happen at most 256 times
per program run, so it's trivial. The same reasoning accounts for the
patch's simplification of string_item (the new version can call
PyString_FromStringAndSize() no more than 256 times per run, so there's
no point to inlining that stuff -- if we were serious about saving time
here, we'd pre-initialize the characters vector so that no runtime testing
at all was needed!).
Store floats and doubles to full precision in marshal.
Test that floats read from .pyc/.pyo closely match those read from .py.
Declare PyFloat_AsString() in floatobject header file.
Add new PyFloat_AsReprString() API function.
Document the functions declared in floatobject.h.
Documentation update to reflect changes to the termios module (noting
that the termios functions can take a file object as well as a file
descriptor).
This closes the documentation portion of SF patch #417081.
