+- Issue #1202533: Fix infinite recursion calls triggered by calls to
+ PyObject_Call() never calling back out to Python code to trigger recursion
+ depth updates/checks. Required the creation of a static RuntimeError
+ instance in case normalizing an exception put the recursion check value past
+ its limit. Fixes crashers infinite_rec_(1|2|4|5).py.

- Patch #1031213: Decode source line in SyntaxErrors back to its original source
encoding.
