If a .pth file contained an error, it could cause a traceback in site.py,
terminating its processing. In 2.7 and 3.2, the interpreter will then not
start. Previously, a message would print saying to use -v to get the
traceback. In either case, the traceback generated for a failed .pth file did
not include the .pth filename, making it difficult to debug the problem. Now
site.py reports not only the .pth filename but also the line number causing the
error, and just skips the remainder of the file.
Previously passing a string in as the password would fail either with
an assertion error or a TypeError with a confusing error message.
Note that a string can't be accepted since zipfile has no way to
guess what encoding should be used to turn it into bytes.

Try this again, hopefully the right way this time.
Arfrever Taifersar Arahesis reported that test_compileall failed during Gentoo
install because it was tyring to write .pyc files to a read-only system
directory during test_no_args_compiles_path. Having the tests call python
with -S should eliminate the system directories from the path.

Before the introduction of filename arguments to compileall it gave semi useful
messages about not being able to 'list' names that weren't valid directories.
This fix restores that behavior. In addition to the test for this case, the
patch also adds a test for the default behavior of compileall when no arguments
are provided, and fixes a bug in one of the previously added tests.
socket timeout of 30 when it checks for resource. Explicit overrding (like
setting the 10) wont exhibit consistent behavior when tests are outside context
manager. So, settting it 30.
Passing the port as a string value works fine in regular mode, but
if you turned debug on it would throw an error trying to print the
port number, which is surprising and confusing.
Issue #7213: Change the close_fds default on Windows to better match the new
default on POSIX. True when possible (False if stdin/stdout/stderr are
supplied).
Update the documentation to reflect all of the above.

Also, include a drive-by fix for an obvious syntax error.
