Just a quick note that that file is still missing from SVN, so it's kind of hard to compile existing code against the current branch state...
No, the file is in SVN. It's just not in the py3k branch because it's not vital to the core. I had plans to add a Python 2.x compatibility header to Python 3.0 But I'm not going to spend any more time on the topic or any other development until we have reached an agreement on the naming. I don't want to waste more of my free time in vain. Christian

It might be vital to those who try to test their code with Py3, though... :)

Sounds to me like people should get back to real work rather than keeping bike-shedding in this thread... Stefan
