12e1595e28 Clarify that isatty is only guaranteed to return true for slave ends of
terminals, not the master end (though it does, on most systems.)

f2c1be22f2 On some systems (like Solaris), the master end of a tty/pty pair is
apparently not considered a terminal, and so isatty(3) returns false. So we
skip the test for ttyness of the master side and just check the slave side,
which should really be a terminal.

84294487df _PyImport_Fini(): Closed small memory leak when an embedded app calls
Py_Initialize()/Py_Finalize() in a loop.  _PyImport_Filetab needed to
be deallocated.  Partial closure of SF #110681, Jitterbug PR#398.

5191463276 Undo Ping's change.
CGI scripts should *not* use /usr/bin/env, since on systems that don't
come standard with Python installed, Python isn't on the default $PATH.

Too bad that this breaks on Linux, where Python is in /usr/bin which
is on the default path -- the point is that you must manually edit
your CGI scripts when you install them.

5f84c9b55e $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON: Don't define here; simply defining it overrides a
definition provided by previously loaded configuration code, and
        testing whether it's defined isn't needed since the default was
        false anyway.

get_link_icon():  Add support for $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON_HEIGHT and
        $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON_WIDTH, giving the dimensions of the icon
        being used.  This can make for faster page display.  Both are
        optional.

make_my_titlegraphic():  Fix insertion of the off-site icon link.

do_env_funcdesc():  Remove debugging print.

handle_rfclike_reference():  Remove trailing colon from first line; it
        doesn't really make sense and looks bad if we add an icon to
        mark off-site links.

9216cfe7ba Added a long-winded comment (and commented-out comment to go with out)
about how it would be nice to write absolute paths to the temporary
byte-compilation script, but this doesn't work because it screws up the
trailing-slash trickery done to 'prefix' in build_py's 'byte_compile()'
method.

Fixed to use 'execute()' instead of 'os.remove()' to remove the temporary
script: now it doesn't blow up in dry-run mode!

d52755f41c Provide a clearer error message when urlopen fails because of an
invalid proxy setting.

Minor change to call of unknown_url; always pass data argument
explicitly since data defaults to None.

PEP 42: Add as a feature that urllib handle proxy setting that contain
only the host and port of the proxy.

1ea64ea3ab Supporting rl_library_version is more trouble than it's worth --
readline doesn't have it before readline 2.2 and there's no
compile-time way to find out which readline version is in use.

Sigh.  GNU readline sucks.

7a40c0702e make_icon_filename(): Convenience function to turn a partial filename
into a usable filename using $ICONSERVER and
                       $IMAGE_TYPE as needed.

get_link_icon():  Function to examine a URL and return the string to use
                  to insert an icon if the link points off-site, if needed
                  and $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON is set.

Adjusted appropriate places to use these new functions.

e3c3b27d33 Fix a bug in stack overflow error handling. This fixes half of Bug
#115555.

The error from s_push() on stack overflow was -1, which was passed
through unchanged by push(), but not tested for by push()'s caller --
which only expected positive error codes.  Fixed by changing s_push()
to return E_NOMEM on stack overflow.  (Not quite the proper error code
either, but I can't be bothered adding a new E_STACKOVERFLOW error
code in all the right places.)

3944a01713 Do not set Konquerer to be the default browser if $KDEDIR is set -- some
Linux distributions which provide both KDE and Gnome set this environment
variable even if the user is not using KDE.  We do *not* want to start
Konquerer if KDE is not running unless the user actually tells us to!

73a6c942cd Added the ability to do byte-compilation at build time, currently off
by default (since compiling at install time works just fine).  Details:
  - added 'compile' and 'optimize' options
  - added 'byte_compile()' method
  - changed 'get_outputs()' so it includes bytecode files
A lot of the code added is very similar to code in install_lib.py;
would be nice to factor it out further.

8161022d4d Added --compile, --optimize options so users have an easy way to

cb9c9aed01 Finished the overhaul of byte-compilation options: there's now a 6-way
choice between (compile, no-compile) * (optimize=0, optimize=1,
optimize=2).  Details:
  - added --no-compile option to complement --compile, which has
    been there for ages
  - changed --optimize (which never worked) to a value option, which
    expects 0, 1, or 2
  - renamed 'bytecompile()' method to 'byte_compile()', and beefed
    it up to handle both 'compile' and 'optimize' options
  - fix '_bytecode_filenames()' to respect the new options

145f96eb36 my_getpagesize(): New function; returns the size of a page of memory.
Versions are defined for Windows and Unix; the Unix
                   flavor uses sysconf() to get the page size; this avoids
                   the use of getpagesize(), which is deprecated and
                   requires an additional library on some platforms
                   (specifically, Reliant UNIX).

This partially closes SourceForge bug #113797.

1df6e7b1fc Reduced the 'bytecompile()' method to a one-line wrapper around
'util.byte_compile()'.  Currently just reproduces the existing functionality
-- doesn't use any of the fancy features in the new 'byte_compile()'.

1297b5ce67 Added 'byte_compile(): an all-singing, all-dancing wrapper around the
standard 'py_compile.compile()' function.  Laundry list of features:
  - handles standard Distutils 'force', 'verbose', 'dry_run' flags
  - handles various levels of optimization: can compile directly in
    this interpreter process, or write a temporary script that is
    then executed by a new interpreter with the appropriate flags
  - can rewrite the source filename by stripping an optional prefix
    and preprending an optional base dir.
