Clarifed that os.environ is captured once; emphasized that it's better
to assign to os.environ than to call putenv() directly (the putenv()
docs said so, but the environ docs didn't).

Gustavo Niemeyer 7bd33c5e22 This change implements the following gettext features, as 
discussed recently in python-dev:

In _locale module:

- bind_textdomain_codeset() binding

In gettext module:

- bind_textdomain_codeset() function
- lgettext(), lngettext(), ldgettext(), ldngettext(),
  which return translated strings encoded in
  preferred system encoding, if
  bind_textdomain_codeset() was not used.
- Added equivalent functionality in translate()
  function and catalog classes.

Every change was also documented.

Tim Peters e45d5a3b00 Claifications: visit procs are supplied by the core, users aren't 
expected to write their own.  A NULL "object" must not be passed to
the visit callback.  A non-zero return from a visit proc isn't
necessarily an error return (and it doesn't matter to the tp_traverse
code *what* it might signify, their only job is to return it).

Tim Peters 5af0e41482 Bug #788520: Queue class has logic error when non-blocking 
I don't agree it had a bug (see the report), so this is *not* a candidate
for backporting, but the docs were confusing and the Queue implementation
was old enough to vote.

Rewrote put/put_nowait/get/get_nowait from scratch, to use a pair of
Conditions (not_full and not_empty), sharing a common mutex.  The code
is 1/4 the size now, and 6.25x easier to understand.  For blocking
with timeout, we also get to reuse (indirectly) the tedious timeout
code from threading.Condition.  The Full and Empty exceptions raised
by non-blocking calls are now easy (instead of nearly impossible) to
explain truthfully:  Full is raised if and only if the Queue truly
is full when the non-blocking put call checks the queue size, and
similarly for Empty versus non-blocking get.

What I don't know is whether the new implementation is slower (or
faster) than the old one.  I don't really care.  Anyone who cares
a lot is encouraged to check that.

Tim Peters 183dabcd73 SF patch 986010: add missing doc for datetime C API, from

tedious repeated text.

Also improved some clumsy wording in NEWS.

* Simplify the Context constructor to match its repr form so that only

* Representation can now be run through eval().

Fred Drake 0a4dd390bf Make weak references subclassable: 
- weakref.ref and weakref.ReferenceType will become aliases for each
  other

- weakref.ref will be a modern, new-style class with proper __new__
  and __init__ methods

- weakref.WeakValueDictionary will have a lighter memory footprint,
  using a new weakref.ref subclass to associate the key with the
  value, allowing us to have only a single object of overhead for each
  dictionary entry (currently, there are 3 objects of overhead per
  entry: a weakref to the value, a weakref to the dictionary, and a
  function object used as a weakref callback; the weakref to the
  dictionary could be avoided without this change)

- a new macro, PyWeakref_CheckRefExact(), will be added

- PyWeakref_CheckRef() will check for subclasses of weakref.ref

This closes SF patch #983019.

Raymond Hettinger 214b1c3aae SF Bug #215126: Over restricted type checking on eval() function 
The builtin eval() function now accepts any mapping for the locals argument.
Time sensitive steps guarded by PyDict_CheckExact() to keep from slowing
down the normal case.  My timings so no measurable impact.

Brett Cannon d88471f432 Change signatures for arguments to "s" and friends to be the proper ``const 
char *`` instead of just ``char *``.  Also added the mentioning of "const" in
some places where it was left out even when the signature already stated the
fact.

Closes bug #980925.

Brett Cannon 289e4cba1c Changed applicable use of `char *` declarations that are passed into 
PyArg_ParseTuple() to ``const char *`` to match the recommendation made in
section 1.3 and to support better coding habits.

Section 1.8 ("Keyword Parameters for Extension Functions") and it's coding
example were not touched since it is stems from an accredited source and thus
did not want to step on anyone's toes.
