Update to better reflect the usage of struct_time instances throughout;
continuing to call these "time tuples" is misleading at best.

instance_getattr2() raises an exception. Fix all code that made this
assumption.

The _Event class should be more careful with releasing its lock when
interrupted. A try/finally will do nicely. Maybe other classes need
this too, but since they manipulate more state it's less clear that
that is always the right thing, and I'm in a hurry.

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.

Duh. cmdqueue should be an instance variable, not a class variable.
This was introduced in 1998 in rev. 1.13, where I imported extensive
patches that, I am sad to say, I didn't review as carefully as I
should have.
Since the WH generator never produced zero, it wasn't fair to characterize
this as a fix to a long outstanding bug. Instead, it makes sure that the
methods work as documented with any generator.

Correct long standing bugs in the methods for random distributions.
The range of u=random() is [0,1), so log(u) and 1/x can fail.
Fix by setting u=1-random() or by reselecting for a usable value.

Backporting a small part of the socket.py changes from 2.3: get rid
of the socket wrapper __del__ method. It isn't needed, and it prevents
cyclic structures containing socket objects (primarily on Windows, where
the wrapper is used) from getting garbage-collected. People running
ZEO tests in Zope under Windows are acutely aware of this, as the
test driver prints an ever-growing gc.garbage list after each test.
Backport documentation of left-to-right evaluation order.
Highlight the difference for dictionaries and provide Py2.2.3
users which advanced notice that the evaluation order will
change for Py2.3.

try_3way_compare() was returning -1 in one case where it should return
-2 (i.e. an exception was set). (This was already fixed in 2.3
through a different refactoring.)
Worth the release of Pyton 2.2.3? Eventually, I guess...
