* ceval.c: use #ifdef COMPAT_HACKS instead of #if 0
* Makefile: fix to make clmodule.c compile;
make config.o dependent on libpython.a (so date is always correct)
* timemodule.c: now sleep() also takes a float argument.
* posixmodule.c: added nice().
* Makefile: svmodule.c.proto and svgen.py are gone, svmodule.c came in
their stead. Also, pass -DUSE_DL flag to thread.c and give
the user a possibility to add the -DDEBUG to just thread.c.
* ceval.c: init_save_thread() can be called more than once now.
* svgen.py, svmodule.c.proto, svmodule.c: Removed prototype file and
replaced it by the generated file.
* thread.c: Added some more checks; added call to DL library when it
is also used to tell it where the shared arena is so that DL
can use some other area.
* threadmodule.c: Call init_save_thread from another place. Also,
added new function getlocklock() which does to lock objects
what getfilefile does to file objects.
* posixmodule.c: move extern function declarations to top
* listobject.c: cmp() arguments must be void* if __STDC__
* Makefile, allobjects.h, panelmodule.c, modsupport.c: get rid of
strdup() -- it is a portability risk
* Makefile: enclosed ranlib command in parentheses for Sequent Make
which aborts if the command is not found even if '-' is present
* timemodule.c: time() returns a floating point number, in microsecond
precision if BSD_TIME is defined.
return NULL for malloc(0) or realloc(p, 0). (This should be done
differently than wasting one byte, but alas...)
* Moved "add'l libraries" option in Makefile to an earlier place.
* Remove argument compatibility hacks (b) and (c).
* Add grey2mono, dither2mono and mono2grey to imageop.
* Dup the fd in socket.fromfd().
* Added new modules mpz, md5 (by JH, requiring GNU MP 1.2). Affects
Makefile and config.c.
* socketmodule.c: added socket.fromfd(fd, family, type, [proto]),
converted socket() to use of getargs().
* flmodule.c: added {do,check}_only_forms to fl's list of functions;
and don't print a message when an unknown object is returned.
* pythonrun.c: catch SIGHUP and SIGTERM to do essential cleanup.
* Made jpegmodule.c smaller by using getargs() and mkvalue() consistently.
* Increased parser stack size to 500 in parser.h.
* Implemented custom allocation of stack frames to frameobject.c and
added dynamic stack overflow checks (value stack only) to ceval.c.
(There seems to be a bug left: sometimes stack traces don't make sense.)
sys.stderr or sys.stdin, and to work with any object as long as it has
a write() (respectively readline()) methods. Some functions that took
a FILE* argument now take an object* argument.
coercion is now completely generic.
* ceval.c: for instances, don't coerce for + and *; * reverses
arguments if left one is non-instance numeric and right one sequence.
