* Issue #20517: Removed unnecessary new (short-lived) functions from PyErr.Larry Hastings2014-02-101-4/+2

* Issue #20530: The signatures for slot builtins have been updatedLarry Hastings2014-02-101-0/+3

* Issue #20517: Functions in the os module that accept two filenamesLarry Hastings2014-02-101-0/+12
| | | | | | now register both filenames in the exception on failure. This required adding new C API functions allowing OSError exceptions to reference two filenames instead of one.

* | Issue #20530: Argument Clinic's signature format has been revised again.Larry Hastings2014-02-091-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new syntax is highly human readable while still preventing false positives. The syntax also extends Python syntax to denote "self" and positional-only parameters, allowing inspect.Signature objects to be totally accurate for all supported builtins in Python 3.4.

| * #14983: always add a line end after a MIME boundary marker.R David Murray2014-02-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is more RFC compliant (see issue) and fixes a problem with signature verifiers rejecting the part when signed. There is some amount of backward compatibility concern here since it changes the output, but the RFC issue coupled with fixing the problem with signature verifiers seems worth the small risk of breaking code that depends on the current incorrect output.

| * #16983: Apply postel's law to encoded words inside quoted strings.R David Murray2014-02-081-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This applies only to the new parser. The old parser decodes encoded words inside quoted strings already, although it gets the whitespace wrong when it does so. This version of the patch only handles the most common case (a single encoded word surrounded by quotes), but I haven't seen any other variations of this in the wild yet, so its good enough for now.

| * #19772: Do not mutate message when downcoding to 7bit.R David Murray2014-02-081-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a bit of an ugly hack because of the way generator pieces together the output message. The deepcopys aren't too expensive, though, because we know it is only called on messages that are not multiparts, and the payload (the thing that could be large) is an immutable object. Test and preliminary work on patch by Vajrasky Kok.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The most appropriate coercion rules are not yet clear, so simply disallowing mixed type input for 3.4. (Committed on Steven's behalf)
* | Issue #20478: avoid special casing Counter in statisticsNick Coghlan2014-02-081-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Passing Counter objects to the Counter constructor is special cased, going through iter() firsts ensures they are handled the same way as any other iterable. (Committing on Steven's behalf as I don't believe his SSH key is registered yet)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I'm checking this in without a test because not much of this code is tested and I don't have time to work up the necessary extensions to the existing test framework. The patch itself was tested by the person who reported the bug.

* | Issue #14455: fix handling of unsigned long long values for binary plist filesRonald Oussoren2014-02-061-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Values in the range of an unsigned long long, but outside of the range of a signed long long were serialized as a negative value. Due to a bug in PyObjC my test scripts indicated that the previous behavior matched Apple's plist code, instead the handle large unsigned values correctly. The change to plistlib.py is from a patch by Serhiy.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - io.TextIOWrapper (and hence the open() builtin) now use the internal codec marking system added for issue #19619 - also tweaked the C code to only look up the encoding once, rather than multiple times - the existing output type checks remain in place to deal with unmarked third party codecs.
