4e9afdca39 Generalize map() to work with iterators.
NEEDS DOC CHANGES.
Possibly contentious:  The first time s.next() yields StopIteration (for
a given map argument s) is the last time map() *tries* s.next().  That
is, if other sequence args are longer, s will never again contribute
anything but None values to the result, even if trying s.next() again
could yield another result.  This is the same behavior map() used to have
wrt IndexError, so it's the only way to be wholly backward-compatible.
I'm not a fan of letting StopIteration mean "try again later" anyway.

0e57abf0cd Generalize filter(f, seq) to work with iterators. This also generalizes
filter() to no longer insist that len(seq) be defined.
NEEDS DOC CHANGES.

f553f89d45 Generalize list(seq) to work with iterators. This also generalizes list()
to no longer insist that len(seq) be defined.
NEEDS DOC CHANGES.
This is meant to be a model for how other functions of this ilk (max,
filter, etc) can be generalized similarly.  Feel encouraged to grab your
favorite and convert it!
Note some cute consequences:
    list(file) == file.readlines() == list(file.xreadlines())
    list(dict) == dict.keys()
    list(dict.iteritems()) = dict.items()
    list(xrange(i, j, k)) == range(i, j, k)

d29abb9915 SF bug 418296: WinMain.c should use WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN.
I believe Kevin Rodgers here!  The old WINDOWS_LEAN_AND_MEAN has, AFAICT,
always been wrong.

4e262a9631 A small change to the C API for weakly-referencable types: Such types
must now initialize the extra field used by the weak-ref machinery to
NULL themselves, to avoid having to require PyObject_INIT() to check
if the type supports weak references and do it there.  This causes less
work to be done for all objects (the type object does not need to be
consulted to check for the Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_WEAKREFS bit).
