+- More fixes to urllib (SF 549151): (a) When redirecting, always use
+ GET. This is common practice and more-or-less sanctioned by the
+ HTTP standard. (b) Add a handler for 307 redirection, which becomes
+ an error for POST, but a regular redirect for GET and HEAD
+
- Added optional 'onerror' argument to os.walk(), to control error
handling.
