f9b526dbfd More of Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes. The only ones left now are the 
distutils patches, which I'll leave to the distutils maintainers.

Tip: review the patch like this:

grep "^[\!+-] " <patchfile>

To get a quick and easy way to review the actual changes. Most of the
changes are single-line ones, anyway.

7399b9e6e4 Moshe Zadka <mzadka@geocities.com>: 
Update the "in" / "not in" description to accomodate the current use
of the __contains__() discipline.  This patch also incorporates
suggestions from Marc-Andre Lemburg <mal@lemburg.com>, minor markup
revisions from Fred Drake, and some rewording of the first affected
paragraph (also from Fred).

Closes SourceForge patch #100831.

35c09f2e51 Revise the description of when functions retrieved from class instances 
are and are not turned into bound methods; some confusion was noted by
Andrew Dalke.

In particular, it has to be noted that functions located on the class
instance are not turned into any sort of method, only those which are
found via the underlying class.

38c28e379c Added a note to the section on 'exec' about the need for a trailing newline 
in certain circumstances.  (Apparently, this is a CPython problem.)

c35367e439 Change an {\em ...} to \var{...} and a {\bf ...} to \program{...} (the 
new markup makes sense in context).

These allow the SGML/XML conversion updates to work, & should not have
still been in there anyway.
