It caused len(Point._fields) to fail. * Add note to _cast() about length checking and alternative with the star-operator. ........ r59707 | jeffrey.yasskin | 2008-01-04 09:01:23 +0100 (Fri, 04 Jan 2008) | 3 lines Make math.{floor,ceil}({int,long}) return float again for backwards compatibility after r59671 made them return integral types. ........ r59709 | christian.heimes | 2008-01-04 14:21:07 +0100 (Fri, 04 Jan 2008) | 1 line Bug #1713: posixpath.ismount() claims symlink to a mountpoint is a mountpoint. ........ r59712 | lars.gustaebel | 2008-01-04 15:00:33 +0100 (Fri, 04 Jan 2008) | 5 lines Issue #1735: TarFile.extractall() now correctly sets directory permissions and times.

This round included: * Revert round to its 2.6 behavior (half away from 0). * Because round, floor, and ceil always return float again, it's no longer necessary to have them delegate to __xxx___, so I've ripped that out of their implementations and the Real ABC. This also helps in implementing types that work in both 2.6 and 3.0: you return int from the __xxx__ methods, and let it get enabled by the version upgrade. * Make pow(-1, .5) raise a ValueError again. ........ r59736 | andrew.kuchling | 2008-01-05 16:13:49 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 1 line Fix comment typo ........ r59738 | thomas.heller | 2008-01-05 18:15:44 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 1 line Add myself. ........ r59739 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 18:49:17 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines Fix C++-style comment. ........ r59742 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 20:28:16 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines Remove with_statement future imports from 2.6 docs. ........ r59743 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 20:29:45 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines Simplify index entries; fix #1712. ........ r59744 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 20:44:22 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines Doc patch #1730 from Robin Stocker; minor corrections mostly to os.rst. ........ r59749 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 21:29:13 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines Revert socket.rst to unix-eol. ........ r59750 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 21:33:46 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines Set native svn:eol-style property for text files. ........ r59752 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 21:46:29 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines #1719: capitalization error in "UuidCreate". ........ r59753 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 22:02:25 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines Repair markup. ........ r59754 | georg.brandl | 2008-01-05 22:10:50 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 2 lines Use markup. ........ r59757 | christian.heimes | 2008-01-05 22:35:52 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 1 line Final adjustments for #1601 ........ r59758 | guido.van.rossum | 2008-01-05 23:19:06 +0100 (Sat, 05 Jan 2008) | 3 lines Patch #1637: fix urlparse for URLs like 'http://x.com?arg=/foo'.
