Subject: backport of concrete.tex v1.35:
X-Git-Tag: 2.2~8
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=775499689ebda242c43000b85969046f64bfc6fc;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

backport of concrete.tex v1.35:

The semantics of PyList_Check() and PyDict_Check() changed at 2.2, along
with most other concrete object checks, but the docs weren't brought into
line.

PyList_CheckExact() was added at 2.2 but never documented.
