Neal, please move this from the head to the release branch 
when you're ready.  Nick, thanks for the review.

Aside from the tests, the patch looks OK. (A search through
the standard library showed that the only current use of
rpartition() is in UserString.py, which will correctly
inherit the behaviour of the underlying string type).

For the tests, the degenerate cases are already tested
(second test in each group), so new test cases aren't
necessary. Instead, the expected result for the degenerate
rpartition test needs to be updated. (Also, the second test
case added by the patch invoked partition() instead of
rpartition())
