  Add rational.Rational as an implementation of numbers.Rational with infinite
  precision. This has been discussed at http://bugs.python.org/issue1682. It's
  useful primarily for teaching, but it also demonstrates how to implement a
  member of the numeric tower, including fallbacks for mixed-mode arithmetic.

  I expect to write a couple more patches in this area:
   * Rational.from_decimal()
   * Rational.trim/approximate() (maybe with different names)
   * Maybe remove the parentheses from Rational.__str__()
   * Maybe rename one of the Rational classes
   * Maybe make Rational('3/2') work.

  Restore description of sys.dont_write_bytecode.

  The duplication is intentional -- this paragraph is in a section
  describing additions to the sys module, and there's a later section
  that mentions the switch.  I think most people scan the what's-new and
  don't read it in detail, so a bit of duplication is OK.

  Issue #1786 (by myself): pdb should use its own stdin/stdout around an
  exec call and when creating a recursive instance.
