938a8d723c Improve the documentation for the os.P_* constants used with the os.spawn*() 
functions to include information about how they affect the operation of
those functions when used as the "mode" parameter.
This closes SF bug #468384.

Added warnings to the os.tempnam() and os.tmpnam() functions regarding their
security problem.  These warning mirror the warnings added to the runtime
by Skip Montanaro.

0a1fc4e389 Remove code and docs for the OldProfile and HotProfile classes: code 
hasn't worked in years, docs were wrong, and they aren't interesting
anymore regardless.

9835206268 A regexp example was rendered as 
foo\d
when it was clearly intended to render as
    foo$
Fred, is this a right way to fix it?  If not, the earlier place in the
same paragraph that does render as
    foo$
is also wrong.

d90f509b8f Fredrik tells me the truefalse parameter for boolean() is not part of the 
public interface, so we can simplify the documentation.

af5910f025 The execfile() docs imply it acts on locals same as exec. But in truth 
it acts more like assigning to keys in locals(), i.e. modifications to
function locals aren't reflected in the locals when execfile() returns.

0d68246f01 Fix two typos in the text about compile(), and add two caveats from 
recent user feedback: you must end the input with \n and you must use
\n, not \r\n to represent line endings.

599db7de63 The list.sort() docs require a function that returns -1, 0 or +1. That's 
never been true, and in particular implies cmp() can't be used(!).  Get
closer to the truth.

b802a1e7fa Markup adjustment: \[...\] is math markup and does not translate well when 
used with text as was done here.  Fixed so that the typeset version wraps
the warning text and the HTML version does not create images of the warning
text.

a6a885b6aa Start making some markup adjustments; Barry has indicated he will work on 
this before we finish the integration, along with some restructuring.

5e634638e6 The email package documentation, currently organized the way I think 
Fred prefers.  I'm not sure I like this organization, so it may change.

c825280ea5 Revise the example to be more resiliant in the face of continued use after 
the object has been pickled; don't mutate the instance dict in the
__getstate__() method.  Other minor changes for style.  Broke up the
displayed interactive session to get better page-breaking behavior for
typeset versions, and to point out an important aspect of the example.

This closes SF bug #453914.

8a9c284437 Make difflib.ndiff() and difflib.Differ.compare() generators. This 
restores the 2.1 ability of Tools/scripts/ndiff.py to start producing
output before the entire comparison is complete.

e0b2d7ac9a Add a function to compute a class's method resolution order. This is 
easy for 2.2 new-style classes, but trickier for classic classes, and
different approaches are needed "depending".  The function will allow
later code to treat all flavors of classes uniformly.
