4f3a62d9bc There's no need for typechecks on the second and third argument of 
new.instancemethod() -- the instancemethod object is now a perfectly
general container.

This fixes SF bug ##503091 (Pedro Rodriquez): new.instancemethod fails
for new classes

This is a 2.2.1 candidate.

c33e077838 SF patch #497420 (Eduardo Pérez): ftplib: ftp anonymous password 
Instead of sending the real user and host, use "anonymous@" (i.e. no
host name at all!) as the default anonymous FTP password.  This avoids
privacy violations.

fd7f115a0e Fix wrongly-named formal parameters in three places: begin_y was used twice 
instead of begin_y and begin_x for derwin(), subpad(), and subwin().
Reported for derwin() by Eric Huss.

Added class annotations for the window methods so they would be properly
described in the index.

This closes SF bug #487165.
Bugfix: this should be applied for Python 2.2.1.

146483964e Patch supplied by Burton Radons for his own SF bug #487390: Modifying 
type.__module__ behavior.

This adds the module name and a dot in front of the type name in every
type object initializer, except for built-in types (and those that
already had this).  Note that it touches lots of Mac modules -- I have
no way to test these but the changes look right.  Apologies if they're
not.  This also touches the weakref docs, which contains a sample type
object initializer.  It also touches the mmap test output, because the
mmap type's repr is included in that output.  It touches object.h to
put the correct description in a comment.

1722e4a952 Re-word the intro slightly to avoid reader misunderstanding: strings are not 
mutable!  We do not want to shock anyone.
This closes SF bug #483805.

Re-factor so that the description of the "access" keyword parameter is not
repeated in both the descriptions of mmap().  Also, only make sure the first
description of mmap() appears in the index.  The the index link is followed,
the first is now used to locate the page on the screen; chances are really good
both will be visible.  This avoids the problem that the index entry for the
second is selected and the first version is not visible, making the reader
consider that mmap() is not available on Windows.
