fromlist to get __import__ to return the module desired. Now it uses the proper
approach of fetching the module from sys.modules.
Closes issue #9252. Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky for the bug report.
environment variable to set the filesystem encoding at Python startup.
sys.setfilesystemencoding() creates inconsistencies because it is unable to
reencode all filenames in all objects.
namespace if it occurs as a free variable in a nested block. This limitation
of the compiler has been lifted, and a new opcode introduced (DELETE_DEREF).
This sample was valid in 2.6, but fails to compile in 3.x without this change::
>>> def f():
... def print_error():
... print(e)
... try:
... something
... except Exception as e:
... print_error()
... # implicit "del e" here
This sample has always been invalid in Python, and now works::
>>> def outer(x):
... def inner():
... return x
... inner()
... del x
There is no need to bump the PYC magic number: the new opcode is used
for code that did not compile before.
a single `\UXXXXXXXX`, regardless of whether the character is printable
or not. Also, the "backslashreplace" error handler now joins surrogate
pairs into a single character on UCS-2 builds.
'once_registry'. This is bad as the warnings module had variables named
'defaultaction' and 'onceregistry' which are what people should be looking at
(technically those variables shouldn't be mucked with as they are undocumented,
but we all know better than to believe that isn't happening). So the variables
from _warnings have been renamed to come off as private and to avoid confusion
over what variable should be used.
Closes issue #9766. Thanks to Antoine Pitrou for the discovery.
