\item The \module{csv} module, which parses files in
comma-separated value format, received several enhancements and a
number of bugfixes. You can now set the maximum size in bytes of a
field by calling the \method{csv.field_size_limit(\var{new_limit})}
function; omitting the \var{new_limit} argument will return the
currently-set limit. The \class{reader} class now has a
\member{line_num} attribute that counts the number of physical lines
read from the source; records can span multiple physical lines, so
\member{line_num} is not the same as the number of records read.
