+- IDLE supports now encoding declarations (PEP 263); it can also deal
+ with legacy 8-bit files if they use the locale's encoding. It allows
+ non-ASCII strings in the interactive shell and executes them in the
+ locale's encoding.

- freeze.py now produces binaries which can import shared modules,
unlike before when this failed due to missing symbol exports in
the generated binary.
