Please go ahead and get the patch together for localcontext(). This should be an easy sell:
* simple bugs can be fixed in Py2.5.1 but API mistakes are forever. * currently, all of the docs, docstrings, and whatsnew are incorrect. * the solution has already been worked-out in PEP343 -- it's nothing new. * nothing else, anywhere depends on this code -- it is as safe a change as we could hope for.
