Backport rev 2.132 (note: some earlier bugfix candidates still TBD).
SF bug 542984.
Change type_get_doc (the get function for __doc__) to look in tp_dict
more often, and if it finds a descriptor in tp_dict, to call it (with
a NULL instance). This means you can add a __doc__ descriptor to a
new-style class that returns instance docs when called on an instance,
and class docs when called on a class -- or the same docs in either
case, but lazily computed.
I'll also check this into the 2.2 maintenance branch.

Windows installer: disabled Wise's "delete in-use files" uninstall
option. It was the cause of at least one way UNWISE.EXE could vanish
(install a python; uninstall it; install it again; reboot the machine;
abracadabra the uinstaller is gone).

Changed last two remaining uses of "./" to "index.html" when referring to the
index file for the top-level directory. This makes it easier to use an
unpacked version of the documentation via file: URLs.

SF bug 538827: Python open w/ MSVC6: bad error msgs.
open_the_file: Some (not all) flavors of Windows set errno to EINVAL
when passed a syntactically invalid filename. Python turned that into an
incomprehensible complaint about the mode string. Fixed by special-casing
MSVC.
- A type can now inherit its metatype from its base type. Previously,
when PyType_Ready() was called, if ob_type was found to be NULL, it
was always set to &PyType_Type; now it is set to base->ob_type,
where base is tp_base, defaulting to &PyObject_Type.
Some more news. (There's also a fix to _localemodule.c that I don't
dare describe, and of course lots of jiggling of the docs and the
Windows installer metadata.)

Make test_commands work on more systems. This removes much of the dependency
on how a system is configured.

Avoid creating circular references between the ExpatParser and the
ContentHandler. While GC will eventually clean up, it can take longer than
normal for applications that create a lot of strings (or other immutables)
rather without creating many containers.

The body of_PyObject_GC_UnTrack() should only be compiled #ifdef

it right away, but forgot to check it in.)

The fix makes it possible to call PyObject_GC_UnTrack() more than once

Backport to 2.2.1.
Fix an issue that was reported in but unrelated to the main problem of
SF bug 535905 (Evil Trashcan and GC interaction).
The SETLOCAL() macro should not DECREF the local variable in-place and
then store the new value; it should copy the old value to a temporary
value, then store the new value, and then DECREF the temporary value.
This is because it is possible that during the DECREF the frame is
accessed by other code (e.g. a __del__ method or gc.collect()) and the
variable would be pointing to already-freed memory.

revision 1.211 of socketmodule.c
Due to interaction between the MSL C library and the GUSI I/O library I can get reads from sockets to work consistently either for unbuffered binary files or for buffered binary files, but not for both:-(
The workaround is to force socket.makefile() to disable buffering for binary files.

SF bug 533198: Complex power underflow raises exception.
Konrad was too kind. Not only did it raise an exception, the specific
exception it raised made no sense. These are old bugs in complex_pow()
and friends:
1. Raising 0 to a negative power isn't a range error, it's a domain
error, so changed c_pow() to set errno to EDOM in that case instead
of ERANGE.
2. Changed complex_pow() to:
A. Used the Py_ADJUST_ERANGE2 macro to try to clear errno of a spurious
ERANGE error due to underflow in the libm pow() called by c_pow().
B. Produced different exceptions depending on the errno value:
i) For errno==EDOM, raise ZeroDivisionError instead of ValueError.
This is for consistency with the non-complex cases 0.0**-2 and
0**-2 and 0L**-2.
ii) For errno==ERANGE, raise OverflowError.
