SF patch #907403: Improvements to cStringIO.writelines()

Browse source 
The writelines() method now accepts any iterable argument and writes
the lines one at a time rather than using ''.join(lines) followed by
a single write.  Results in considerable memory savings and makes
the method suitable for use with generator expressions.
