8f53cdcfce - object is a class type, not a function
- when marking a function, the trailing () should be included
  consistently

2e0b18af30 Change the treatment of positions returned by PEP293
error handers in the Unicode codecs: Negative
positions are treated as being relative to the end of
the input and out of bounds positions result in an
IndexError.

Also update the PEP and include an explanation of
this in the documentation for codecs.register_error.

Fixes a small bug in iconv_codecs: if the position
from the callback is negative *add* it to the size
instead of substracting it.

From SF patch #677429.

046b8a7244 Fix SF # 641111, Undocumented side effect of eval
Try to clear up confusion about the current globals being copied
into a globals dict passed to eval().  This wording (more or less)
was suggested in bug report.  It should probably be made clearer.

Backport candidate.

e9ce25e512 Fix SF #642742, property() builtin not documented
Added doc for functions new to 2.2:  classmethod property staticmethod super
Taken from docstrings.  Could use review.
Hope there wasn't a reason why these shouldn't have been added.

Backport candidate.
