* Backport 1.54 1.53 1.52 1.51 1.50 and 1.49:Raymond Hettinger2002-10-051-36/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Try to improve the explanation of the "raise" statement and how its arguments are interpreted. This closes SF bug #532467. Fix Typo. Reword explanation of global statement since an undeclared global is a free variable and is subject to those rules. Note the sole case in which the ban on "from ... import *" within a function is enforced. Remove the following restriction: Names bound by import statements may not occur in global statements in the same scope. Why not? Note that it is illegal to delete a cell variable. Note that deleteing an unbound local will raise a NameError.

Also note that test_email_codecs.py differs slightly from its Python 2.3 counterpart due to the difference in package location for TestSkipped.
