* Backport r45505, r45573, r45576Martin v. Löwis2006-10-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - reset errno before calling confstr - use confstr() doc to simplify checks afterwards - Correct implementation and documentation of os.confstr. Add a simple test case. I've yet to figure out how to provoke a None return I can test. - Address issues brought up by MvL on python-checkins. I tested this with valgrind on amd64. The man pages I found for diff architectures are inconsistent on this. I'm not entirely sure this change is correct for all architectures either. Perhaps we should just over-allocate and not worry about it? The change to return None instead of "" in case of unconfigured values has not been backported.
