-----------------
+- Issue #7298: fixes for range and reversed(range(...)). Iteration
+ over range(a, b, c) incorrectly gave an empty iterator when a, b and
+ c fit in C long but the length of the range did not. Also fix
+ several cases where reversed(range(a, b, c)) gave wrong results, and
+ fix a refleak for reversed(range(a, b, c)) with large arguments.

- Issue #7244: itertools.izip_longest() no longer ignores exceptions
raised during the formation of an output tuple.
